Throughout the 1960s and 70s, London-based Big O Posters helped
define the new and democratic art medium of the psychedelic poster,
a vehicle for rebellion against the old order that went hand in
hand with the music, literature, and film of the time. This is a
comprehensive collection of works published by Big O artists,
astonishingly creative folks whose artistry developed almost
completely outside the influence of the art establishment. Included
in more than 300 images are works by 19 artists, including Martin
Sharp, Roger Dean, H.R. Giger, Robert Venosa, and Vali Myers, whose
signature styles include sci-fi, fantasy, visionary, botanical, and
surrealism. In addition to hundreds of original works, this book
digs below the surface to offer insights and anecdotes about the
era, the artistic process, and reveals connections to artists from
the past (Aubrey Beardsley, Alphonse Mucha, Kay Nielsen) whose
spirit chimed with the age of Big O Posters.
