I wonder - if this wasn't emek how much praise it would be getting.

Would anyone frame this?

I'm not saying I don't like it but really is it genuinely a classic? Or honestly were people hoping for more from the master?

the thing gets me crazy about it is the colors..AMAZING...this blue and the sky color..is awesome..

The blue in the name at the top also has some metallic flecks in it. Its pretty sweet up close

damn..u make me wanna want it more..

Niko, I'll agree that 2011 hasn't been EMEK's greatest year for posters, but he still has done a couple of amazing pieces... for example, this one showed up in the mail a couple of weeks back, and it is beautiful:



And he hasn't sold either of these yet, but I'm circling like a vulture waiting for the drop... both are similar concepts, but they both look fantastic:




And then you have to think about the Foo Fighters/Motorhead Copper printing he did, which is just sickening...



And the new black keys poster looks like it would have some real depth in person on that fancy paper...



so all in all, while his Ed prints this year may have missed the mark a bit (and I say that without seeing them in person cause I can never seem to score PJ/Ed EMEK prints with all the people trying to get them), I can't see how one could call this a bad year for EMEK.

Personally, I like this SB print a lot, despite it's morbidity... the level of detail in the poster is so thick that every time you look at it, you'll find something new in the print... a lot of EMEK's work is like that... It just depresses me to know I'll probably never be able to get my hands on one and look at it in person...

(that said if anyone bought a spare they are willing to part with,1st or otherwise, I will happily accept, cause EMEK artist drops on PJ/Ed posters never go well for me.... )

I can't see images
For 2 posters that you mention; FF & TBK, there are awesome but It's all different game because material, I give him a lot of credit because he experiment a lot with different stuff like plexiglass, copper and new 3D TBK poster that is cool, I mean I like Emek don't get me wrong but I don't necessary idolize everything, every poster just because he is Emek, you know what I mean.

Chuck Sperry - Long Beach
Dabs and Myla - Philly

Well, we're in the home stretch and with 3 shows left, this is where we stand. I'm hopeful for Portland and both Seattle shows as I'll be attending them. I will continue to update this thread until we have the best images available for each show. It's been interesting seeing the variety between the artists and themes of each show poster.

MUNK ONE is the winner so far!

Thanks Marcus for putting all the pics everytime after the show, when I wake up every morning I know where to go to see new poster and this is great too all together, thanks a lot.

New Mark 5 poster it's ok, but I guess we are dropping down with the quality again, something is telling me that we have seen the best on this tour and that's it.

i might be the only one, but that Mark5 is my favortie of this tour - maybe cuz its got so much Oakland in it

Go Raiders!
