Keith Neltner poster for Lance Rice "The Rain Man of Beer" and his inspiring journey

This summer Lance Rice's dream, a film and book called "Lance's Brewery Tour," is coming true. With help from the greatest breweries in America Lance will set out on a nationwide road trip and author a book about American breweries, a dream 40 years in the making. His journey, which has already been covered by USA Today, MAXIM & Disney's Babble.com, will be chronicled in an inspiring documentary also titled "Lance's Brewery Tour" (visit www.lancesbrewerytour.com for more info).

Lance has an encyclopedic knowledge — a cliche, admittedly, but there’s no better way to describe it — of the history of beer in America, and for 40 years he’s wanted to write the definitive book on the subject. So, Lance’s nephew is launching a Kickstarter campaign to fund the filming of Lance’s dream, starting with a cross-country tour of America’s breweries. The project was called “Beer, Autism, Hope.”

Renowned Poster artist Keith Neltner and writer Jeff Chambers of Neltner Small Batch known for designing for bands like Alice in Chains, Modest Mouse and Cake created, signed and numbered 50 original hand pulled screen printed posted to support Lance’s Brewery Tour! Lance's film and book are a one-of-a-kind project, which will be embraced and remembered as one of the beer world's most inspiring and memorable projects. Keith Neltner's limited edition posters are a rare and beautiful piece of brewing history! Each poster sold goes to benefit Lance's Brewery Tour / Beer. Autism. Hope.

Sticker Robot Say Hello to the Newest Sponsor

No matter what the field be it music, art or whatever; I have always said when someone creates a unique style or something original it's sets them apart from everyone else. Sticker Robot has done that with their silk screen stickers. As a sticker junkie it is a great honor to have Sticker Robot on board as a sponsor on the blog.

They have a client list of Fortune 500 companies and almost every artist you know. All those Obey Giant stickers you get, all printed by Sticker Robot.  When it comes to quality, there is a huge difference between digitally printed stickers and silkscreen stickers. If you're a meat eater, it's like comparing taco bell beef to grass fed filet mignon. If you're a vegetarian, it's like comparing hydroponic, pesticide treated iceberg lettuce to organically grown mescal lettuce. If you're a robot, it's nuts vs bolts. Two totally different products, where the comparisons could go on and on.

You want to make an impact with a sticker that will stand up over time order them from Sticker Robot HERE

Last year when they were giving away Free Pussy Riot stickers I had them send me a few to give out as well. One of my giveaway winners lives in Russia so I sent him some and he put them up in his city. Read the story HERE

Here is more about Sticker Robot you may not know:
 

Highest Quality Vinyl Stickers
No one can beat our quality. We will take the quality challenge with any silkscreen sticker printing company on the planet. Seriously.

Thick Ink.
Because of our unique sticker printing process, our inks are typically at least 2-3 times thicker than other silkscreen printers and 10x-20x thicker than digitally printed stickers.

Best Materials.
In order to print our custom outdoor stickers, we use the highest quality materials and inks available. Most companies use the cheapest materials they can get in order to save money. We are the only sticker printing company that uses the very highest caliber materials. We are top shelf, son. We're constantly experimenting with new materials and always evolving our process to provide the highest quality stickers in the world. We don't skimp on the materials.

Aggressive Permanent Adhesive.
You're ordering stickers, right? Not "My Pretty Pony" postage stamps...

Thick Liner Backing.
10pt board backing to be precise. This is the average thickness of a postcard. Your Sticker Robot produced stickers will slice a banana.

100% UV Protection... Multiple Passes.
We literally screen 3 passes of clear UV protection. If you understand how labor intensive silkscreen printing is, you will think we're crazy for spending that much time, effort, and material to add extra life to our stickers. We are crazy... crazy for the best stickers on the planet. (Yes, that last sentence was a smooth use of the English language.)

Photo Realistic Printing.
Most silkscreen printers use 35-70 LPI (lines per inch). We have perfected the use of 140 LPI. The result is as close to photo realistic as you will find anywhere for silkscreen sticker printing.

Kim Cogan Surf Motel Print Release Details

1xRUN are extremely excited to welcome in San Francisco artist Kim Cogan as he debuts with Surf Motel, a painting from his recent solo show Sea Change. Kim Cogan’s work has been featured in countless magazines and last year he was named one of American Artist’s 75 Greatest Artist Of All Time, and I would have to definitely agree.

"With this painting at first glance one notices the obvious, but upon a closer look beyond the color and glow of the lights, this painting conveys character and provokes a mood, an insight to a deeper thought or memory.

This painting was featured in my 2012 solo exhibition, Sea Change at Hespe Gallery in San Fransisco. The show focused & drew inspiration from the ocean & coastal surroundings, so the 'Surf Motel' fit harmoniously.

What sets this painting apart from some of my other work is the way that the light is portrayed and the luminous color, along with the bold brushstrokes, layering of paint, and the overall mood created." - Kim Cogan

Surf Motel is a 18 x 15 Inches Archival Pigment Print on 300gsm Museum Bright White Fine Art Paper with a signed and numbered edition of 75

On sale today at NOON EDT at 1xRun.com

The Phantom of the Opera Poster by Laurent Durieux from Dark Hall Mansion World Premier Exclusive

Click to enlarge they are breath taking

Dark Hall Mansion, www.DarkHallMansion.com, unveils its second installment in the DHM-Seminal Film Series with nothing less than 1925's epic, "The Phantom of the Opera" starring the inimitable Lon Chaney and rendered strikingly by artist and collector favorite, Laurent Durieux.

Their limited edition "Phantom of the Opera" prints go on sale next Thursday, June 6th, 2013 at 10:30 AM PST in the DHM Store page here:http://www.darkhallmansionstore.com

While some of their upcoming releases for the DHM-Seminal Film Series might surprise, indeed seem outright obscure, particularly as they're passionate silent film fanatics at DHM, there is no way we could present a unique and artistic take on cinematic history without properly, and we hope, beautifully, addressing some of the very cornerstones that shaped the course of film history to this very day.

The aim of Dark Hall Mansion's DHM-Seminal Film Series is the very bridging of cinema as art and art as cinema. To create beautiful prints for some of the most resonant American and international films, distilling film and imagery while beholden to no specific screening or advertising obligations. Our aim right from the onset was to honor the tradition of vintage film posters while simultaneously releasing our artists from its commercial constraints.

All DHM-Seminal Film Series prints are strictly limited, numbered, and beautifully screen printed.

Editions are as follows:
Standard "Phantom of the Opera" Edition: 24" x 36" (Edition of 200)
Variant "Phantom of the Opera" Edition: 24" x 36" (Edition of 100)

There will also be two very select "Phantom of the Opera" Wood Editions:
One with Standard artwork (Edition of 10), one with Variant artwork (Edition of 10).

*These special Wood editions will be released in conjunction with our friends at
www.emovieposter.com, the world's largest vintage film poster collector website,
and they will release their examples by lottery while DHM will offer its Wood
editions on our initial release date.

Standard "Phantom of the Opera" Edition: $65

Variant "Phantom of the Opera" Edition: $100

Select Wood "Phantom of the Opera" (Standard or Variant artwork): $250

All DHM-Seminal Film Series "Phantom of the Opera" Limited Editions go on sale next Thursday, June 6, 2013. They will be available on our dedicated Store page at 10:30 AM PST here: http://www.darkhallmansionstore.com/

Steam Cicada Print by Andrew Ghrist

Click to enlarge and see all the detail

I like bugs and crawly things as long as they are outside or like my tarantulas in their cages. It's cicada time in parts of the USA right now as the 17 year chirping little devils comes out to play and get their freak on. While I'm not a real fan of them since cicadas are not all that interesting I did get real interested in this print when I saw it. Andrew Ghrist is the artist and wow did he do a killer job on his Steampunk Cicada print that is all hand drawn.

I asked Andrew how he came up with the idea:
  

 When i moved to the midwest (Chicago) i had never seen a cicada before, and was just fascinated by them and their shells. I  just ran with the idea that they stayed burrowed underground for years and they looked fairly mechanical.-Andrew

The regular full color one is a 7 layer screen print 12"x24" printed on 100lb Madero Beach French paper. With a signed and numbered edition of 85

He also has blue variant on 110lb Snow Cone French paper with an edition of 40

He has these and bunch of other very well done nature prints for sale in his Etsy Store HERE. Be sure to check out all his work.

A Boy and his Big Blue Box Rob Schwager Print Release

Details from Rob Schwager on his terrific new print releasing this week through Tiny Bird Press:

When I was a kid, I used to run home from school to watch my favorite TV shows. One of them, was this British television program that ran on WTTW, (the PBS station in Chicago). It was a quirky science fiction show about a time traveller called the Doctor. He and his companions whisked around space and time in a blue phone booth looking thing called a Police Box.

The year was 1980. The show was called Doctor Who, and I, was hooked.

The Doctor at that time was played by an actor named Tom Baker, who wore a ridiculously long scarf. I decided I needed a long scarf too. I wrote a letter to some long forgotten address I obtained, and received a knitting pattern for the scarf. I somehow talked my grandmother into making one for me. It was awesome. Even though I was ridiculed mercilessly by my peers for wearing it, my love for the 4th Doctor and his adventures never diminished.

Well, it just so happens that 2013 is the 50th year anniversary of Doctor Who. It's the longest running science fiction television series in the world.

This is my homage to those days from my youth. Days that were filled with countless hours spent watching Doctor Who and pretending that I too, could travel in space and time.

“A Boy and his Big Blue Box” •Hand-printed serigraph by Rob Schwager
•19″ x 25″ on 100# French Speckletone paper
•Printed with water based non-toxic ink
•11 screens
•Signed and numbered edition of 130

The print will be released on Friday, May 31st at 8:00 PM EDT. at the Tiny Bird Press webstore.

BRANDT PETERS & FERG TERROR BOYS - OOZE no.00 Figure Release

Ides #2 Print by Dan MacAdam of Crosshair

Crosshair just put the latest Crosshair fine art print up on the site and in the store.  It's entitled Ides #2 and follows upon last year's Ides print. It's an 8-color silkscreen print and it's $50 in the shop: http://crosshair.bigcartel.com/

Like the Forts and Cranes, this is going to become an open-ended series, albeit a much more restricted one as it will consist entirely of the same subject presented in different conditions and compositions. That bridge is just irresistible, and so it is becoming a series. Maybe Dan will do another shot of it each year, from different angles and in different conditions, and then in forty years the results will be compiled in a coffee table book. Who knows? But here it is, presented objectively without any superimposed narrative or mood music, no figures in silhouette staring meaningfully into the distance, no pop culture tie-ins: A huge, quiet monster of the industrial age, beckoning to you.

For sale this Thursday May 30 is Emek's poster for the triumphant return of QOTSA Queens of the Stone Age to Los Angeles at the Wiltern Theater.

They are being summoned out of the desert. Their new (sixth!) album is called Like Clockwork. So I dreamt about a stone age clock.. a sundial... starting with that sundial concept, it morphed into worshiping a stone age Queen. Since the band is called the plural QueenS, I made it 2 queens. A little shaman dude turns his bull skull into the double deities above him... in the desert landscape that the band is so familiar with.-Emek

The Silence of the Lambs Posters by Cesar Moreno & Movie Inspired Wine From Mondo

Movie, posters and wine all this from Mondo what more could you want. Alamo Drafthouse is delighted to announce the launch of its second limited edition signature wine, inspired by Jonathan Demme’s 1991 Oscar-sweeping thriller, THE SILENCE OF THE LAMBS. After the success of last year’s THE PRINCESS BRIDE-inspired “The Bottle Of Wits,” the Alamo is now making an oenophilic nod to noted gourmand, wine connoisseur and psychopath Hannibal Lecter for this year’s “The Cannibal Chianti,” and one to elusive lotion enthusiast Buffalo Bill for the “Suit Yourself Pinot Grigio.” Both wines will be available at all Alamo Drafthouse locations and online HERE starting today.

With the wine we also get a couple of new The Silence of the Lambs posters by  Cesar Moreno. The first poster is Precious and it is 24 x 36 with an edition of 150

The second poster with Buffalo Bill in the design of the Deaths Head Moths wings in 24 x 36 also with an edition of 110. While I like the look of the poster, not sure I want the image of a dude tucking his junk between his legs on my wall.

Both posters go on sale Thursday May 30 at a random time at Mondotees.com

Universal Personhood Shepard Fairey Print Release Details

When I first saw this new print by Shepard Fairey titled Universal Personhood I will be honest I had no idea how the title tied into the image. With a little help from Wikipedia I have a better grasp on the print. Personhood is the status of being a person. Defining personhood is a controversial topic in philosophy and law, and is closely tied to legal and political concepts of citizenship, equality, and liberty. According to law, only a natural person or legal personality has rights, protections, privileges, responsibilities, and legal liability.

Personhood continues to be a topic of international debate, and has been questioned during the abolition of slavery and the fight for women's rights, in debates about abortion, fetal rights and reproductive rights, in animal rights activism, as well as in debates about corporate personhood.

Processes through which personhood is recognized vary cross-culturally, demonstrating that notions of personhood are not universal.

Universal Personhood is 18 x 24 inches with a signed and numbered edition of 450. On sale at a random time Tuesday June 4 at ObeyGiant.com
