Moonalice Legend Book Vol 6 Hardback

February 3, 2016 By Moonalice Posters 30 Comments

The Moonalice Legend: Poster and Words, Volume 6 Hardback Book

In a culture dominated by Duggars and Kardashians, there is no better place to hide than the Moonalice Legend! You are about to possess Volume 6 of the Moonalice Legend series, where gaps in your knowledge will be filled with nuggets of information that would otherwise exist only in this book. The legend goes where scholars fear to tread – from the origins of Purple Sunday, to the life and times of Mrs. Natural, to the quadrennial sporting extravaganza that is the M-Lympics. You’ll also learn about Morris, the cat with 420 lives and Elmira Fudd Moonalice, who waised wabbits knows as Keister Bunnies.

This book also includes the best poster art of San Francisco, created for a band committed to the notion that music, art, and laughing are good for the human spirit. A year’s worth (June 3, 2012 to June 1, 2013) of Moonalice posters and legends is precisely what you need to make sense of the crazy world in which we live.

The legend continues…

Paper Cuts Art Exhibit Includes Work by Winston Smith

November 17, 2015 By Moonalice Posters 12 Comments

Artist Winston Smith, master of “hand-carved” collage, has new work in the exhibit Paper Cuts presented by Robert Berman’s E6 Gallery in San Francisco.

The Trojan Horse by Winston Smith

Reminiscent of Matisse’s Cut-Out series, Paper Cuts shows how paper can take on a strength and beauty in it’s abstract and narrative forms. In this exhibition, we observe how such a simple medium can be transformed into diverse ranges of forms. Considering paper’s history as one of the oldest formats for documentation and avenues for expressing ideas, the exhibition continues to foster the growth of this utilitarian medium and explores how it can adapt with the times. Paper Cuts features four artists who all express their unique take on the same material.

Bunny On The Hot Seat by Winston Smith

Psychedelic, Punk & Beyond poster by Alexandra Fischer

Haight Street Art Center and Miner Family Winery are teaming up to present one of the coolest curated pop-up art exhibits this year!

Haight Street Art Center presents at Bottlerock 2015

This art exhibition displays an evolution of the Concert Poster, identifying primary eras in conjunction with the music of each period. It begins by focusing on artwork from two seminal rock movements: San Francisco’s Psychedelic Era and the subsequent Punk Explosion. The survey continues with the Grunge Movement, and more contemporary works. The show features several leading artists, both historic and current, to represent the extensive body of poster art created in the last five decades. Informed and influenced by its native Bay Area roots, this evocative art form continues to grow, innovate, and extend beyond…
