From The Archive: Psychedelic Secession 2010 Poster – On Sale!

To celebrate the massive success of my skateboard design with Nick Cave (Read More), I’m opening my archive to release the print version (from 2010) of my Nick Cave skateboard design (April 2018).

In 2010 I made a well-documented European rock art tour for two months, visiting Italy, France, Switzerland and the UK. Read More

My original tour statement: “The Europe 2010 Tour is called “Psychedelic Secession,” and is aimed at connecting to poster movements of the Decadent Period and Belle Epoque in Europe, folding that connection into the Psychedelic Period of San Francisco in the 1960’s, and moving ahead at the forefront of the present modern global silkscreen poster movement.”

In a rare opportunity, this Sperry classic from 2010 will be made available from my archive reserve.

I will be making this very limited online release (right here in this post) on Tuesday, May 15, 2018 at a random time.

Important: This release is a mystery tube; I will randomly ship one of the 8 posters shown below for each purchase.

Sperry at “Mermay” Art Show at Modern Eden Gallery

Siren by Chuck Sperry for Modern Eden Mermay
Siren, 2018
17.5 x 33
Oak Panel Edition of 30
7 colors on oak panel
Signed and Numbered

Originally produced in 2015 as a screenprint on paper for the ocean environmental activist foundation Pangea Seed, my latest print on oak panel, “Siren”, is meant as warning. My imagination has always been drawn to this mythical being – dangerous and enchanting – whose form is an enthralling warning. The Siren dances and sings like the sea itself, seducing us with her sound, movement and beauty.

Long ago, on November 5, 1965, prominent climate scientists Roger Revelle, Wallace Broecker, Charles Keeling, Harmon Craig, and J Smagorisnky met with US President Lyndon Johnson and warned him of their findings on Climate Change. By 1974, Wallace Broekner had modeled his prediction for the affects of accumulated carbon dioxide on the global surface temperature of the Earth.

His predictions remain accurate to this day.

I am alarmed by the state of our planet’s environment. I grew up with the warnings. The predicted changes are here now.

It’s clearly time to act. Please be mindful and give your care to the environment. It’s time to do what you can to become a good steward of the environment.
