We're not dead. Yet. Yeah, we're in Saint Paul now. We're printing a WIRE poster for the Metro in Chicago Sunday night. We'll post it as soon as it's printed. Thanks for noticing our absence.

this is noce, too, but i do see the reference to chuck anderson as being legit. right after i launched that style for urban outfitters (their art director howard brown hired me to create their look) they went and hired csa to do the next campaign the next year. he and i had already become 'collaborators' and we had begun to influence each other. he took the old tool look into some pretty fucked up territory with the uo stuff - including taking the background colors from old tool ads and printing them on the WRONG IMAGES from other ads. thus, this look. he floored me when i saw that. we'd both been fascinated by the color 'templates' that were created by the ads when you took them apart. he crammed them into his designs as texture fields from mars. brilliant.

concept is solid. the design is great. but what i really love the way the orange is placed in this poster, such a nice detail.

vibranium :

your right, Nolen. i'm just getting a vibe from it and not on the 'designer' front. maybe it's just strong - it's just all visceral.

Nolen Strals :

nice poster too, goes well with The Dismemberment Plan.

Nolen Strals :

it's funny you say this doesnt' remind you of Art Chantry coz years ago he did "the tool poster" as it has come to be known...a poster for a series of events (The Night Gallery?)in Seattle, and it used really dry/boring images of tools, components etc. he's considered the first to do it. It was really groundbreaking at the time. It's also funny that you say it reminds you of Urban Outfitters coz Chantry did a lot of posters and even a magazine for them, and soem of the posters feature just giant inane pictures of odd machine parts. Not picking, just pointig out that this is reminiscent of Chantry. Check out his book, the stuff I referred to is in there.

Anyway it's super-cool. popular mechanics meets 60's pop art. nice juxopositioning. Reminds me of something i can't place it. not CSA or ART C. hmmm...weird. reminds me of Howard Brown era Urban Outfitters maybe. it'll hit me...

vibranium :
