PERFORMER The Association Quicksilver Messenger Service The Grass Roots The Sopwith Camel ARTIST Wes Wilson DATE Jul 22, 1966 VENUE Fillmore Auditorium (San Francisco, CA) When the Avalon Ballroom and Bill Graham's Fillmore Auditorium began to hold weekly dance concerts, Wilson was called upon to design the posters. He created psychedelic posters from February 1966 to May 1967, when disputes over money severed his connection with Graham. Wilson pioneered the psychedelic rock poster. Intended for a particular audience, "one that was tuned in to the psychedelic experience," his art, and especially the exaggerated freehand lettering, emerged from Wilson's own involvement with that experience and the psychedelic art of light shows. Here the hand crafted lettering burns like real flame vibrating off the paper in intense orange against a rich green background.

June of 2009 I got to see one of the original prints of this at The Denver Art Museum. The visual heat of it is intense.

Poster time … 3 pieces unframed in a map, 3 framed waiting to be hung somewhere, 2 on my walls. As far as i know they‘re all 1st run originals.
