New stuff from Nakatomi

From Alex at Nakatomi:

Good and Evil.

Here at Nakatomi Print Labs, we’re always trying to improve our set-up. Test the limits of what we can print, and explore the boundaries of screenprinting. One thing we don’t do a lot of is photo-collage work. So, we decided to fire up the ‘ol photoshop and see what we could do.

We printed these as a photo resolution test, but they’re just way too cool not to get out there. Since obviously ZERO thought went into these, we’re selling ‘em cheap. But really, what thought needs to go into DON KNOTTS vs. OSAMA BIN LADEN duking it out on the GAME GRID. We weren’t thinking with our minds…we were thinking with our hearts.

2 prints each measuring 11 3/4″ square.

Only 15 sets available to the public, the rest will be digitized at ENCOM and sent to compete in the games.

Available HERE for $15 per set in the Art Prints section!

This 3 color 6″x24″ print is yours for the taking!

They've got a couple dozen of these laying around, and they’re throwing them in for free w/ every poster order. And again, no purchase needed- you want one, swing on by the print shop, or send a SAST (Self Addressed , Stamped Tube) to Nakatomi HQ, and they’ll send one of these right back to you while supplies last. Just make sure you include enough postage for a 1lb priority mail shipment for it to get back to you!

PLEASE NOTE- They can only ship these freebie posters with other poster orders (unless you send a tube!). If you order a sticker set or a t-shirt pick POSTER shipping, so they can’t get it in there all together in a tube. And SELF ADDRESSED STAMPED TUBE means you HAVE TO INCLUDE RETURN SHIPPING either in the form of cash or postage!

Limited Edition Prints by TAKI 183 available online NOW

Graffiti writers around the world know the name that started it all: TAKI 183. A kid from 183rd Street in northern Manhattan, TAKI 183's simple signature captured the attention of a reporter and, on July 21, 1971, the article "TAKI 183 Spawns Pen Pals" appeared in The New York Times.

Just like that, TAKI 183 became a graffiti legend, with rumors spreading that he even tagged a Secret Service car and the Statue of Liberty. Amid all the rumors, TAKI 183 remained silent. Now, almost four decades later, TAKI 183 has emerged to tell his story.

This site includes photos of TAKI 183's work, images of his friends and contemporaries, his true story and, for the first time, official TAKI 183 limited-edition screenprints.

There are currently three screenprints available in the store:

COLLAGE

New Posters art prints by Jermaine Rogers on sale details

Jermaine Rogers has two new posters dropping this week. Jermaine has become a lot more up front with his social commentary recently instead of masking it in his gigposters, for that we are all better.
TWO NEW ART PRINTS AVAILABLE THURSDAY MARCH 19:
'Little Animals Grow... (Teach Your Children)' & 'To Be Young, Gifted and Black'


Little Animals Grow... (Teach Your Children)' is a 7-color screenprint measures approx. 24x16 inches and is printed on gallery stock. The title and imagery are rather striking, in lieu of certain current events in the world. Jermaine mentions, 'It's interesting how our society provides several ways of teaching a child to get very comfortable with the feel of a pistol in his hand. Every little detail of this image has it's own little meaning: I hope some of you will like it.'

This print is from a very limited edition of only 75 signed and numbered copies.

For sale on THURSDAY MARCH 19TH AT A RANDOM TIME BETWEEN 12-3PM MOUNTAIN (2-5PM EASTERN)

'To Be Young, Gifted and Black' 7-color screenprint measures approx. 20x20 inches and is printed on gallery stock. Concerning the imagery, Jermaine says:

'Excuse my indulgence in a few statistics for a moment. Note the following numbers from the US Dept. Of Justice, complied in an article that I read recently:

Among men, blacks (28.5%) are about six times more likely than whites (4.4%) to be admitted to prison during their life.

Based on current rates of incarceration, an estimated 7.9% of black males compared to 0.7% of white males will enter State of Federal prison by the time they are age 20 and 21.4% of black males versus 1.4% of white males will be incarcerated by age 30.

There are more black men are in prison in America than are in college.

The National Institute of Drug Abuse estimated that while 12 percent of drug users are black, they make up nearly 50 percent of all drug possession arrests in the U.S.

In six California counties independently surveyed in 1995, 100% of those individuals sent to trial on drug charges were minorities, while the drug-using population in those same counties was more than 60% white.

A CNN article in 1996 cited U.S. government figures that show more than 90 percent of all federal prosecutions for crack cocaine in 1995 were of African American defendants. In addition, unlike convictions for powered cocaine and other drugs (which wealthy, Caucasian defendants are more likely to use), a conviction for selling crack cocaine can carry a lengthy prison term without benefit of parole. 60% of the cases involved drug values of less than $50, so we aren't talking about drug dealers, here.

What about figures for other types of crimes? According to the U.S. Department on Justice, property and drug offenses account for 76.4 % and 56.4% respectively. So, most minority criminal convictions are NOT for violent crimes...as you might have been led to believe by the media, your friends, or your family.

Interesting, isn't it? Of course, I'm not implying that black men don't commit crimes at all. As the aforementioned article later pointed out, I believe that there is an equal amount of the 'criminal element' in every race in America. Thing is, if you're a young black man, you're WAY more likely to be arrested and convicted. In fact, governmental agencies actually rely on these trends, and have worked increasingly larger amounts of funds into the budgets for urban and low-income arrests and state and federal prison building. They've got 'plans' for 1 of every 4 little black boys in America (1 in 4 U.S. black men in their twenties is either in jail or under legal supervision).

The title of this print was taken from a song called 'To Be Young, Gifted, & Black', written by Nina Simone during the civil rights movement. There's a line in the song that says:

We must begin to tell our young
Theres a world waiting for you.

Obviously, there's many sides of the issue and a whole lot of supplemental factors to think about. Look at those statistics again. Ask yourself, 'Why?''

'To Be Young, Gifted, And Black' is a very limited edition of 75 signed and numbered prints.

Both prints will be for sale at www.jermainerogers.com on March 19 between 2-5 pm est. at a random time
