Pop and Politics Poster Series, 2005

A series of posters designed for the 2005 edition of the Pop and Politics conference, part of the Pop Montreal music festival. Working with my good friend Jay Delmarr, we created a series of bold typographic posters to promote the conference which dealt with wide-ranging issues at the intersection of music and politics. The conference included performances by Saul Williams and K’naan, two of my favourite artists, and having the opportunity to design these posters was an absolute treat.

The posters stood in stark contrast to the illustrative silkscreened music posters covering the city’s lamposts and hoardings at the time and helped to draw critical attention to the event. Click on the images below to view the full poster series:
