Thirty Three and a Third (Point Two)

November 14, 2011 in Exhibition, Illustration by Fan Works | No comments

Thirty Three and a Third (Point Two) Art Show:

Second Verse, Same As the First

“ELKADER, Iowa—If it ain’t broke… why fix it? The digital music craze may one day totally erase all evidence of the physical album. But the record cover will always remain an icon to music (and art) lovers everywhere. Which is why the “rules” of this year’s Thirty Three and a Third (point two) Art Show remain the same as last.

Starting on Sunday, Nov. 13, 2011, Schera’s Fine Art in Elkader will host the first leg of the Thirty Three and a Third Point Two Art Show. The show features 33 and a third different artists and designers reinterpreting and re-imagining existing album covers in their own unique style. The size of each piece is 12” by 12” (the size of a vinyl LP), and the Iowa participants, along with many featured national and international artists, are using a variety of different media to come up with their covers.

Local illustrator and designer Dana Lechtenberg created and is once again curating the show, and his 5-year-old daughter, Emmalene, will be the final “third” artist rounding out the 33 and a third participants. “Last year’s response to the show was amazing,” Lechtenberg says. “The international coverage we received blew me away. We even had a magazine in Tokyo write a story on the show. This year is shaping up to be just as good as last year. The submissions have been incredible so far.”

{De}Face the Music

April 27, 2011 in Exhibition by Fan Works | No comments

“Welcome to Deface Value, home to defiled, degraded, doodled-on, and some downright deranged, altered album cover art.

Vintage LP covers provide the canvas; ball-point pens, pencils, sharpies, fingernail polish, stickers, and elements of collage provide the media. Since many of the covers were found second hand, we’ll never know what provided the inspiration, adding to the artwork’s mystique.

This gallery features covers from my personal collection as well as others that have been authentically found or intentionally altered by readers…”

33.3 Art Show

January 6, 2011 in Exhibition, Illustration by Fan Works | No comments

It really doesn’t get much simpler than this … and it really doesn’t need to be. Let the music do the talking, and your eyes do the walking … Check them all out at 33.3 Art Show.

Hi. I’m Andrew and I like it when people call me an illustrator, graphic designer, or “the sensible one”.

At one point I was going to re-imagine The Beatles’ Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band but then thought “Why do that when I could interpret the album that INSPIRED it?!?” I mean, who inspires the Beatles?! Frig The Beach Boys are cool.

The Human Printer

October 22, 2010 in Exhibition, Illustration by Fan Works | No comments

There’s a really nice post over at Michelle Kirana Oh‘s blog on the Human Printer and their quiet ode to Luddism {just kidding … sort of …}. For those reared on printing and the printing process, it’s a welcome find these days … Check the post for some skinny on the project/exhibition and then head over to the Human Printer to get your CMYK on …

“Unlike any other printer the Human Printer creates unique individual images each it prints. Following the same process as a digital printer, the Human Printer generates the printed product by hand. Throughout the printing process the Human Printer assumes the role of the machine …”
