Diana Sudyka
This week's Posters of the Day on TBP will feature the work of Diana Sudyka, a Chicago artist/illustrator/postermaking goddess with a bit of a Jay Ryan-esque style, hand-drawn type and all.
Poster of the Day
This week I'll be featuring the work of Chicago poster shop Crosshair. Their prints incorporate a photographic quality not often seen in concert posters, and for good reason....I can't imagine the precision registration it takes to print one of these.
Spiking the Punch
Spike Press, "nom-de-squeegee" of Chicago poster artist John Solimine, has an amazingly varied body of rock (and non-rock) posters in his portfolio.
Truisms Come to Chicago
As a fan of Jenny Holzer's work, I may have to make a special trip to Chicago for her upcoming exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art Oct. 25 - Feb. 1. As a fellow southern Ohio native and Ohio University alum, I must say I'm a bit biased, but I don't think anyone would argue her impact on the current politically charged art world. Chi-town natives should make a special trip of their own today through Friday, when her work will be projected on the museum facade after dark.
A healthy (kind of) obsession
Chicago designer Shawn Hazen shares an obsession of mine, photographing type in public places. I wonder if his wife gets frustrated like mine does, waiting for him every time he sees some cool type when they walk in public?? He, however, has taken the time to organize and document his work on this fantastic site. Most is either old, hand painted or abandoned (sometimes all three) but all is disappearing fast. I could spend days here.
