SCREENADELICA (uk) 19th of MAY

Posted May 13th, 2011 by Craig Robson

Screenadelica is a gig poster exhibition, celebrating the art of the screen printed gig poster, held during Liverpool Sound City festival. Playing host to both UK and international artists, Liverpool shall see a wide variety of styles promoting the bands the artists love, inspired by the music they hear. With digital download taking over the music scene, the desire to still own something physical makes the screen printed poster all the more important, driving artists to create pieces of art for each show which encapsulates the music in their eyes. This then means that rather than one artist representing the bands sound, they get a whole range of interpretations of their music thru the screen printed gig poster.

The actual exhibition is open from 3pm daily.

The gallery space shall also play host to a bar and will have a specially curated line up of bands and visuals featuring:
