Eye Spy

Rock Poster Art Rocks

By David Hershkovits

If anything were deserving of documentation, it would be the story told in American Artifact: The Rise of American Rock Poster Art. The long-awaited documentary about the history and resurgence of the American Rock Poster, is scheduled to premiere June 20th in San Francisco as part of The Rock Poster Society's "Rock Art By The Bay" event. What's ironic here is that while album art covers have gone the way of the dodo bird in favor of digital downloads, there's been a tremendous resurgence in the art form thanks to websites and bands commissioning posters for their shows. Enjoy the preview and find out a lot more at americanartifact
