The new Beatles museum in Hamburg, celebrates the Beatles formative days on the Reeperbahn. It's called the Beatlemania Museum. It has five floors, 1300 square meters of Beatles stuff, a yellow submarine... It's right on the Reeperbahn near where Flatstock is located.

The Participating artists created an art print, as a visual interpretation of a Beatles song of their choice. Each is the artists own response to the song, done in the artists own style, as a limited-edition art print.

Some of the artist's are Luke Drozd, Graham Pilling, Cameron Steward, Lars Krause, John Howard and Malleus

Some of the poster artists attending Flatstock Europe customised a squeegee handle (New/old, in any medium of the artist's choice) for Nick Rhodes Squeegeedragger Show. My contribution is a studio kitty with her red rubber tongue out from grooming.

23-29th September

The stand there is hinged 2x4's used to hold the squeegee while working on it. They will be hung on the wall for the show. There are more in-progress pics on the link below.

At some point in the making of this the idea came up to to make a squeegee cozy with the same image, but pixelated in needlepoint. Dina embroidered the image and it came out pretty great. In the end we decided a crudely upholstered squeegee was just as funny, and a lot easier to make. Hehe Cheers Dina.

This print is a personal take on the history of Caffe Mediterraneum on Telegraph Ave. in Berkeley.

In addition to being the oldest coffeehouse in the East Bay and the birthplace of the Latte, The Med has a history of being a mecca for burgeoning Beatnicks, Hippies, Punks, Artists, Writers, Political Radicals.. a myriad of people who 'dropped out' of their set life path to become something more interesting. This piece is for these people who Washed Ashore in Berkeley over the last five decades.

This book comes from drawings made while traveling in Europe last summer. First in Denmark with family, which was very peaceful, and later while showing posters at Zstock in Tilburg and Flatstock in Hamburg. It was most fun showing the 3d posters. I like that people really stare into the drawings on the 3d prints ..and say oooh and ahhh! which is great.

When I got back home and began planning out a book of the sketchbook drawings, it made sensto make it a 3d book.

Click below for videos and process pics showing how the 3d is put together and very basic bookbinding.

We had a great time at Zstock at Tilburg in The Netherlands & Flatstock in Hamburg Germany at Reeperbahn 2008. We met tons of great people on both sides of the tables.. too much fun.. and traveling europe was inspiring.
