Color 16 x 20 poster on semi-glossy photo paper honoring the nightclub Max's Kansas City and the "30-Year Anniversary of Punk Rock," designed by Laurence Gartel for a 2006 event at the Gibson Entertainment Showroom in NYC, signed in the lower right corner in silver ink by Gartel, and dated 2006. In fine condition, with one small crease.
Considered the 'father of digital art,' the New York born-and-raised Gartel has worked in the digital medium for over forty years—preceding even the advent of the personal computer. Gartel taught Andy Warhol to use the Commodore Amiga in order to make a Debbie Harry album cover, and was friends with many of those in the NYC art scene. Gartel's work has been exhibited at the Museum of Modern Art, Long Beach Museum of Art, Princeton Art Museum, and Norton Museum of Art, and is also included in the permanent collections of the Smithsonian Institution’s Museum of American History, Bibliothque Nationale in Paris, and Victoria and Albert Museum in London. He was the official artist of the 57th Annual Grammy Awards, and created a massive Grammy statue wrapped in psychedelic vinyl that still resides at The Recording Academy.
