About this poster
At 17”X22” this poster is double the size of the standard music poster. I chose to do this piece as a continuous-tone image, and rendered it in oil crayon on coquille; when it was printed, I specified a black/purple duotone. Maceo’s shows are energetic events. The music has such a driving force that the room and everyone in it come alive; it takes a concerted effort to not move with it. So I felt it was a perfect occasion to once again render the music visually. Placing Maceo squarely in the center, he becomes the eye of the storm - – standing there, hands frozen in mid-clap perfectly illustrates the velvet torque his funk-fused wall of sound creates. With that anchoring the piece, I set about creating the graphic structure around him. From the sweeping title shape wisps of music emerge, swirling into the darkness along intricate paths. The shapes at the bottom, delineating date and place, thrust upward, while the fires in their bellies as they push into the scene threatens to consume all. I think this is an accurate visual description of the magic he performs on stage.
