Print Liberation Book Trailer permalinkWitness Print Liberation’s totally wacko trailer for their book The Screen Printing Primer which will show you how to start screen printing today using the most basic elements—a screen, some emulsion in a bucket, artwork, a light source and a sink.

Aaron Rose Interview permalinkWhile you might not know who Aaron Rose is, a solid handful of the artists we’ve posted on this blog (Geoff McFetridge, Barry McGee, Mike Mills, etc.) owe their some of their success to the visibility and promotion Aaron gave to them in the 90s. He’s probably most well known for curating the Beautiful Losers touring exhibit but he also has the following credits on his resume: writer, publisher, editor, musician and filmmaker. Flux spoke to Aaron about life and how he lives it. |
