Grateful Dead 18 Winters
About this poster
This licensed poster for The Grateful Dead by N.C. Winters for Bottleneck Gallery is an extraordinarily detailed and richly symbolic piece of official band merchandise.
The central focus is a meticulously rendered human skull with the iconic Grateful Dead "Steal Your Face" lightning bolt symbol embedded in its forehead. The skull is surrounded by delicate white roses in full bloom, creating a striking contrast with the mortality symbolism. The background behind the skull is divided into swirling red and blue sections, reminiscent of psychedelic patterns and possibly representing fire and water, or life and death duality.
The entire circular central image is framed by an ornate, baroque-style border with intricate scrollwork and decorative elements. At the bottom of this elaborate frame sits another smaller skull partially obscured by foliage. The band name "GRATEFUL DEAD" curves prominently across the top in large stylized lettering with a green outline against a blue fill.
The background of the poster has a warm beige/tan color that enhances the rich colors of the artwork. According to the artist, this piece required over 1,000 hours of work between September 2017 and April 2018, and was printed as a 12-color screenprint, explaining its exceptional depth and detail. The piece was created as an official partnership with the Grateful Dead estate and Bottleneck Gallery.
