I spent this year mostly hunting down older stuff, so there's only one 2015 release on my list.
Warhol.jpg
Andy Warhol, LIZ 65 (Morris International) -- 1965 Exhibition version of Liz 64. The paper has some mild toning and there's foxing on the back, but otherwise in great condition for a 50 year old poster


Haring.JPG
Keith Haring, THE KUTZTOWN CONNECTION, 1984


trespassing.jpg
Banksy, FORGIVE US OUR TRESPASSING, 2010, the unfolded, single sided art edition



Image
Shepard Fairey, THIS NEW WAVE IS A LITTLE SLICK FOR MY TASTE, 2014, large format screen print with varnish, edition of 60



Image
Gerhard Richter, FENCE (Heni Editions P13), 2015, Diasec mounted chomographic print on aluminum, edition of 500

My Aunt, who passed away this year, took me to the 7/26 show in Jones Beach, it was my first dead-related show, so this one means a lot more to me than an offset litho tour poster should

Image
it was nice to start the year with some nice weather for a change

Image
had so much fun that weekend in Chicago

Image
I love me some eyefry

Image
some old school creepy Geddes

(MIshka Westell 13th floor elevators, Hunter+Forbes Hot Tuna, and Malleus Black Mountain 05 just missed the cut)
