Two of my posters are in the PIN UP art show opening Thursday 15 December at 7pm at Mercer Union, a centre for contemporary art (1286 Bloor Street West, Toronto). Posters are available in limited editions of 5 at $75 each. Only 3 of each poster are available for purchase online - 2 posters are reserved for sale at the opening: all sales support Mercer Union’s exhibitions and public programs.
Running alongside the new works selected for PIN UP, Mercer Union will feature a special exhibition of Toronto gig posters drawn from guest curator Michael Parke-Taylor’s extensive collection. This show provides a rare opportunity to peak into the former AGO Curator of Modern Art’s personal archive of paste-up print design. The selection offers an eclectic index of posters for famous and not-so-famous musical acts who have performed in Toronto over the last fifteen years.
As well here is a sneak peek of the upcoming book of The Canadian Romantic book:
