Previous Shows

Orlando Calling, Florida, 12-13 November 2011.

We got the opportunity to take part in Orlando Calling this year and design posters for some amazing bands! The festival is in its first year but it hopefully will be a positive experience, something we can come back to build upon each year. This years show shall feature posters for The Pixies, Gogol Bordello, Lucero, The Avett Brothers and The Ettes.

Bestival 2011, Isle of Wight. 7-11 September 2011

In association with Bestival, Screenadelica played host to 11 specially commissioned poster designs for some of this years headline acts, which were available as very limited edition screenprints from our stand. Also featuring our regular artists, we had our busiest show to date with many prints selling out.

SITE Gallery, Sheffield. 2/3 September 2011

As part of the DIY Summer School programme. A special summer series of workshops, talks and events, celebrating diversity in creative making and thinking and hosted by a string of bright creatives including DIY Couture, Sheffield Publicity Department, Screenadelica, Crow & Dunnage and Rotherham 'Zine Library.

With music by bands Real Fur and Audacious Art Experiment, plus djs/visuals/film.

Primavera Sound, Barcelona, Spain. 27-29 May 2011.

The first show of its kind at Primavera, we brought the show from Liverpool Sound City over to Spain, bringing the posters to a whole new audience. We commissioned 2 posters for this festival both designed by Horse for Mogwai and Low, both of which sold out in record time. The feedback for this show was amazing, so good in fact, something very special is happening there next year!

Liverpool Sound City, International Gallery, 19-21 May 2011.

Our second ever show at our 'home' festival was such a huge step forward from our first show the previous year. Together with Sound City, we programmed a great line up of bands to complement our huge talent of artists adorning the walls. The show lasted 3 days, we had a lockout 3 nights in a row, I think we have a pretty healthy show on our hands here!

Craig Robson Interview

Craig Robson is what you call creative. Plus he's a really nice guy. He works under the pseudonym Daggers for Teeth, and he's a whizz when it comes to drawing.

So, we decided to tie him to a chair, shine a bright light in his face and interrogate him. He loved it...

 

Where are you from/ Where are you now?

 I was born in Beverley, East Yorkshire and now I live in Liverpool.

How would you describe your work?

I would describe my work as increasingly line centric traditional inked illustrations. I have a fascination with mythology, traditions and fake symbolism and this permeates the imagery of the drawings I produce.

What music are you listening to at the moment?

Music wise I am listening to a lot of things like Stray From The Path, The BDDM, Converge, LetLive, The Chariot, Patrick Watson, Dead and Divine, City And Color, Bon Iver, BASTIONS etc. I’ve become a bit of a vinyl collector and I like finding new indie labels putting out limited records, I try to buy all the colored ones.Anything on Tangled Talk records or Deathwish usually floats my boat too.

What's the nicest thing anyone has ever said about your work?

I’m not really sure what the nicest thing people have said about my work is but the most helpful thing is when people tell me what’s wrong with it. What I can do better, and what works.

What's your routine?

My routine is as basic as possible, wake up-draw-eat-draw-sleep. Obviously its all not just as basic as that but when you break it down I guess that’s it. The eating’s the best bit of it all!

 


What have you got lined up for the future?

I try and make time in my routine to do other things like riding my bike, playing tetris on the toilet or looking for things I can have made to sell.

 

You can see loads more of Craig's work in the Artists section and his work is available to buy at Screenadelica exhibitions.

Wes Winship

Take a look at this amazing collection of Arcade Fire prints designed by Wes Winship. In my opinion each one is an achievement in screen printing. His depiction of the theme The Suburbs is extensive and beautiful.

Think I might have to get myself one of these as a late Christmas present. More of Wes' prints and designs are available to view and buy here BURLESQUEOFNORTHAMERICA
