    Malleus Update + Tour

    DARK NOUVEAU - USA TOUR 2009


    MALLEUS, will be returning to San Francisco this year under the tour banner DARK NOUVEAU. The following events are a celebration of “DARK NOUVEAU,” a return to the roots of poster creation. DARK NOUVEAU evokes equally the fin de siècle style of Toulouse-Lautrec and 1960’s San Francisco Psychedelia – and operates here as a manifesto of reinvention and revision – aimed at connecting to the poster movement of the Decadent Period to the Belle Epoque and folding it into the Psychedelic Period to the present modern global silkscreen movement.

    WATCHING YOU!



    Handmade Silkscreen - 7 colors on heavy white paper - 70x70cm - LTD of 95 pieces





    This poster was originally realized for a carnival party, so we imagined the cow of the famous cover of Pink Floyd’s “Atom Heart Mother” masked as Gene Simmons of Kiss. We’ve always loved this image, so we decided to realize it in a large size as a handmade silkscreen. First of all for hanging it in our living rooms… ahaha It’s a 7 colour print  of about 70 x 70 cm (that is, if I’m not wrong, 27 x 27 inches) on heavy paper. We’ve used a light blue metallic ink, a deep green, a prismatic gold/pink for the shadow on the cow and a metallic black. Well, apart from red, brown and green. We’ve recorded all the printing process and You can see all in the video below. It’s been fun, we usually print on smaller sizes, so we had to change some of our “printing habits”. We’re also working with new inks, so the colours are more vivid and metallic comes out of the paper.


    TOMORROW NEVER KNOWS






    There’s a new Beatles museum in Hamburg, celebrating the Beatles formative days on the Reeperbahn.
    It’s called the
    Beatlemania Museum. It has five floors, 1300 square meters of Beatles stuff, a yellow submarine… it’s a huge tourist attraction, right on the Reeperbahn near where Flatstock Europe is located.They have exhibition space, and they’ll host a show of Beatles-themed art prints before, during, and after Flatstock. The show begins on September 24th, with an opening event at 7:00 PM. Thereafter, it will be open from 10-10 and is free to anyone with a Reeperbahn Festival pass. We’ll be a part of the event and we’ve create an art print, as a visual interpretation of one of our favourite Beatles song: “Tomorrow never knows”, from the album “Revolver“. The poster is a 6 colour handmade silkscreen on heavy cardboard and it’s a big size one: cm 60 x 90 (23 x 35 inches). Run is 100. It’s obviously inspired by the lyrics of the Beatles song and from the Timothy Leary words “Turn off Your mind, relax and float down stream”. There are 4 'Acid Beetles', like blotters, on the tongue and hand of the woman coming out from the third eye that is like a pool of ink. Eye is linked to the sky descending from the brain on top.At the bottom of the poster there’s the infinite symbol, like a loop “to the end of the beginning”, like the song itself, an incredible drone song of the ‘66. It’s been amazing for us to work on this poster, Beatles are one of our favourite bands ever and 'play' one of their songs with our inks has been great.
