Chuck on his approach to this one:
I had a blast making this “Old School” poster in the 1990’s style. I hand-mixed fluorescent and metallic inks from pigment powder, especially for this poster, so every color in it is a custom formula (and very strong chromatically, haha!). I designed the band names and show information in black bars at the top and bottom of the poster – a technique artists in the 1990’s devised to save time, create maximum impact, readability, and to allow for the inevitable last-minute changes in bill or venue (Consider that most posters were color separated by hand-cutting rubylith films with exacto knives – black bars allowed for faster color preparation). Enjoy this super eye-popping “Old School” Supersuckers poster, turn on your blacklight, and listen to the Evil Powers of Rock’n’Roll!
Supersuckers, Paradiso, Amsterdam
Signed and numbered edition of 150.
Poster measures 19 x 32 and is a 5 color screen print on cream paper.
Chuck will be making a very limited online release of this poster and it’s variant on Friday, September 8, 2017 at a random time at http://www.chucksperry.net/
