Brent Birnbaum’s ICE ICE MAYBE in store appearance at Ted Reiderer’s NEVER RECORDS went extremely well. Brent channeled Vanilla Ice with such gusto that not only did he autograph and sell hundreds (well at least well over one hundred) of Sanford/Birnbaum prints, but he also signed almost as many body parts. Yes he signed boobs!
We still have a few prints left which we are selling off over the internet to ... CONTINUE TO POST »

Naturally William and I agreed the poster should reference rock concert tour posters. Below is a photograph of the reproduced poster ... CONTINUE TO POST »

The first poster I did was for the dynamic and versitile Amanda Browder. Amanda’s work ranges from 2D work, to sculptor and installation and also performance.
