Each artist brings their unique experience in screen printing from their broad ranging experience in the worlds of gig/rock posters, movie and film work, street art, fashion and beyond. Working with single and multicolor screen prints, each artist has created a new limited edition pushing and melding the boundary of the analog print process. Typically working with art directors and clients for commercial and licensed projects, SERIGRAPH allows this curated artist list a creative freedom not commonly found in their day to day work. This allows for an exploration of artistic practice in a completely restriction-free space has resulted in stunning array of works within the medium.

Bad Dads, “Margot” The Royal Tenenbaums Poster

My poster is an homage – not only to the films of Wes Anderson – but an homage also to Alphonse Mucha and his “Medea” poster. I’ve run with the idea that Margot Tenenbaum is a playwright and here she has cast herself in the role of Medea, the tragic protagonist from Euripide’s play, as portrayed in Mucha’s poster.

It’s twelve colors, six colors on each of the two pieces. It is printed as a diptych – top and bottom – much like Alphonse Mucha printed his two piece posters in the early 1900’s. Both pieces of “Margot” fit together to create a 22″ x 62″ diptych.

Each piece will be approx 22 x 31 – there’s printed overlap on the bottom part and a full bleed cut on the top part – so they fit together.
