Follow on Google News | Crazy Dave's Art & Stuff - Retro Posters!Crazy Dave's Art & Stuff creates retro posters inspired by propaganda from the Soviet WW2 era and pop culture.
But who is Crazy Dave? Crazy Dave is known as David Shannon, creating a unique blend of posters. The posters are a blend of serious but funny. Inspired originally to poke fun at Social Realism and Vladimir Lenin, it was intended as a joke. Starting with a silly wine label called Oktober Red Wine, this was shown at art shows in Northeast Minneapolis. It drew great interest, created posters, then t-shirts of this design and upon suggestion from my audience, I created more posters in that particular style. It evolved into a Yuri Gagarin, telling american astronauts "Kiss My Ass, I was here first". The reception was great, and hearing people snort and laugh out loud was gold. My drive to create is fueled by how much people laugh or really "get it" when creating a new piece of art. To see the whole collection, go to www.dcshannon.com. End
