Christmas re-editions!

Due to a high amount of mails we receive everyday asking for a reprint of Ten Great Years and Guitar Lessons, we finally decided to go for a last edition of both of them. 250 copies of each are available now at the Spoke Art store. Copies are giclée printed on 300 gsm archival paper, they’re all hand numbered and measure 18” x 24”.

If you’re planning to get your copy for Christmas, please be aware that they might go fast. So hurry up!

For this new edition of Guitar Lessons Peter Green was replaced by B.B. King, only because his moustache looks better.

Maximdalton .com relaunched

My website is on air again, with some changes, a few photos and many more illustrations to show. I also added a Newsletter coupon, for those who would like to receive my bulletin by e-mail once in a while.

All the hard work was in charge of Incubo Digital, a young and enthusiastic web design company in Buenos Aires. If you like what you see, you can hire them too trough their site.

Bad Dads on Halloween Eve

The second annual Bad Dads art show tribute to the films of Wes Anderson starts next Saturday, October 29^th. Apparently, since last year the exhibition was a huge success, the opening will be extended to the evening of Sunday 30^th, both days starting at 10pm. Go visit the show if you’re around, you won’t regret it. Spoke Art, 816 Sutter St., San Francisco, CA 94109. The show will be on view until the end of November.

My contribution for the show is this Life Aquatic poster. Original print has hand-painted details that glow in the dark! How cool is that?! As usual, a limited number of copies will be available during the show and right now at Spoke Art’s store.

Poster Shizzle interview

A couple of months ago I created a header for the new site of Poster Shizzle. The most amazing posters about films are always featured there, so if you dig movie art, you definitely should add this site to your favorites. They made me an interview the other day, full of interesting questions. Take a look!

First things first: Kill Bill

For the third and final stop of the nationally touring Quentin vs. Coen art show, I made this half martial arts – half spaghetti western style wedding picture poster. Original and 150 numbered copies will be available during the show, which will be on view October 1st and 2nd at the Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery at Barnsdall Park as part of the Beyond Eden Art Fair. More info on the fair can be found here, any remaining copies of the prints will then be made available online here.  Collectors interested in the original signed copy should contact spokeartgallery@gmail.com to be placed on the show’s preview list.

Lebowski prints available now

Prints are ready to go! Both the Rug and El Duderino are printed using archival inks on a 300# Italian produced cold press watercolor paper. The edition of 250 for each of them is hand numbered. They cost $50 each, or you can buy the set of matching numbers for $ 80. You can order them online at Spoke Art’s store. Hurry up! They’re going fast.

Find the grail!

A new Crazy4Cult show is about to start. Here’s a little poster I made, inspired in Monty Python’s Holy Grail, one of the funniest movies I’ve ever seen. The grail is hidden somewhere in the illustration, painted gold in the original print. Only ten copies will be made. You can see this show at Gallery 1988, 7020 Melrose Ave., Los Angeles, CA. Opening reception: Friday July 8, 7-11 PM.

Quentin vs Coen Round 1 – The movie

This video documents the art show that was curated by Ken Harman of Spokeart on April 7th, 8th and 9th at Bold Hype Gallery in New York City.  Round two about to start! Watch it here.

Batteries not included

This is another work I created for the Quentin vs. Coen exhibition. It’s an old-looking bowling game and it really works! A ball is shot from the plunger and texts actually light up when the ball hits a spot. Only one El Duderino will be available.

To tie the room together

Second round of Quentin vs. Coen is around the corner. This time, the exhibition will take place at the brand new see of Sopkeart, a beautiful place at 816 Sutter St., San Francisco, CA.

For the first show I created a poster of my favorite movie of Tarantino, Pulp Fiction. Now it’s time for a Coen’s revenge, and I’m going with two works in this opportunity. Here’s one of them, a rug from The Big Lebowski. A limited edition of copies will be available during and after the show at Spokeart’s store. Go visit, opens June 2^nd!
