Tonight Endless Canvas will be screen printing live and giving out free (donation based) posters at Oakland’s first Friday Art Walk.
We will be set up at 23rd Street and Telegraph Ave, and will print from 6pm-8:45pm or while supplies last.
This months artist is ATTICA RIOT. (Artist will not be present)
(This photo is from last month when we printed Madeleine’s design.)
Our Endless Posters Project has been printing a free poster for a different artist every month consistently for over eight months and off and on over the past few years.
We’re excited about this new vinyl banner that SIGNAZON donated to us! It’s all hemmed and riveted and everything!
We’re going to slap it on the front of our table at events so that you can find us! Ha ha. (The Farmers Block designed the handstyle on the the banner.)
Signazon’s customer service was very friendly and they personally made sure that our black print went all the way around the edge.
If you’re on a budget and need a quick banner for your project, check them out: www.Signazon.com
Besides event banners, Signazon also offers custom stickers and wall decals. You can upload your own design for all their products.
This year we have two tables (immediately next to each other) so that we can pack even more work by local artists.
The Bookfair will aslo be more conveniently located in the Mission near BART this time.
The 18th annual San Francisco Anarchist Book Fair will be March 16 and 17, 2013.
For the first time, the book fair will be held at The Armory Community Center, located in San Francisco’s Mission District at the corner of 14th Street and Mission.
The Bay Area Anarchist Book Fair is a free two-day event presented by Bound Together Bookstore.
Each year, the book fair brings together over 75 radical booksellers, distributors, independent presses, and political groups from around the world, and features books, pamphlets, zines, art, crafts, and information. The two-day fair includes dozens of speakers, panels, and workshops as well as an art show.
“John Park is an artist and teacher living in Los Angeles, California. He received his training at the Rhode Island School of Design where he studied classical drawing, painting, sculpture and anatomy. His current series is an attempt at reconciling these classical influences with the more urban aesthetic of the Pop Surrealist movement. The paintings themselves are executed in a live, public setting usually in one evening and then taken back to his studio for further reworking and detail work. He teaches drawing and painting at Concord High School in Santa Monica, has three cats and one Tree.” (bio from Think Space Gallery)

This past Saturday (December 1st, 2012), True Modern set up a guerilla cocktail party inside The Carbon Warehouse. The abandoned ink factory housing Endless Canvas‘s SPECIAL DELIVERY Bay Area 2012 Mural Exhibit provided a beautiful contrast to the custom Modernist furniture displayed at the cocktail party. As models served h’orderves, guests were given flash lights and encouraged to explore three stories of the post apocalyptic museum. It was pouring rain and the flooded floors turned into giant mirrors giving new life to the artwork. Water ran through the eyes of murals from floor to floor creating the Bay Area’s own Trevi Fountain. What I thought was going to be a simple furniture shoot turned into one of the most gorgeous things I’ve ever seen.
Featuring heads from Special Delivery and presenting artists who translate their life from the streets to new styles and mediums… photography, painting and flipping the original expression of graffiti and street art.
