Chuck Sperry is excited to be joining Spoke Art for a return to one of the biggest pop art events of the year, the one and only San Diego Comic-Con! Spoke Art will be releasing Sperry’s new Nick Cave, Artist Edition poster [Sperry will not be attending].

Dates: July 24 – 27, 2025
Booth: 4900

Online Release: Thursday, July 31st 2025 at 10am Pacific Time on SPOKE ART’S WEBSITE.

On this historic solo tour, rock icon Nick Cave transformed his pain into emotional power. With Colin Greenwood (Radiohead) at his side, Cave delivered an intense concert, carried by his dark voice, masterful writing and musicianship.

Chuck Sperry’s poster was officially available at the Nick Cave concert in Rochefort, France at the Festival Soeurs Jumelles, a festival where image meets music. Sperry was honored to be commissioned by festival co-founder and famed French actress Julie Gayet who emphasizes the festival’s commitment to gender equality and eco-responsibility. Ms. Gayet is also known for being the wife of former President of France, François Hollande.

“Danaïde” wears early spring flowers and carries her terracotta amphora decorated with the winged horse Pegasus. As Pegasus stamps the earth, so bursts a spring; as Hippocrene flows on Mt Helicon, so flows inspiration from the source of the muses.

The myth of the 50 Danaïdes, condemned for all eternity to toil, to endlessly carry water to fill a leaking vessel. Sisyphus fated to bear his heavy stone uphill, only to lose his burden near the hilltop, and to begin again.

This is our struggle for equal rights, for our democracy. To paraphrase Albert Camus: the struggle itself — to continually work to fill the leaking jar — is enough to fill her heart. One must imagine the Danaïdes happy.

Come, and trip it, as you go,
On the light fantastic toe;
And in thy right hand lead with thee
The mountain-nymph, sweet Liberty;
And, if I give thee honour due,
Mirth, admit me of thy crew,
To live with her, and live with thee,
In unreproved pleasures free
