INVASION WEB

 

Invasion of the Body Snatchers, 1978
a film by Philip Kaufman
21 X 32
Edition of 150

Spoke Art and Trailers from Hell is proud to announce a very special double feature screening of the 1956 and 1978 versions of Invasion of the Body Snatchers.

Join Spoke Art this Friday night, April 10th, at the Roxie Theater in San Francisco for these two seminal films, along with a very special Q&A session with the director of the 1978 version, Philip Kaufman, moderated by Sam Hamm.

As a special bonus, Spoke Art will also be offering two brand new limited edition prints by Chuck Sperry (pictured above) and David Moscati, available for purchase during the intermission.

“I wanted to articulate the feeling of alienation in this great city that most San Franciscans have been struggling with over the last few years, and Philip Kaufman’s brilliant film has given me the vehicle to express what’s on everybody’s mind in poster form.” – Sperry

Dark Nouveau Events in October

darknouveausperry

MALLEUS, the artist collective of Urlo, Poia and Lu, the remarkable poster design team from Italy, will be returning to San Francisco this year under the tour banner DARK NOUVEAU.

–

The following events are a celebration of “DARK NOUVEAU,” a return to the roots of poster creation. DARK NOUVEAU evokes equally the fin de siécle style of Toulouse-Lautrec and 1960’s San Francisco Psychedelia – and operates here as a manifesto of reinvention and revision – aimed at connecting to the poster movement of the Decadent Period to the Belle Epoque and folding it into the Psychedelic Period to the present modern global silkscreen movement.
