Spyder Yardley-Jones Book Launch
Advertisement
Spyder Yardley-Jones is an Edmonton artist whose art shows have awed and shocked the public in Canada and the USA.
In addition to being a cartoonist, painter, sculptor and instructor,, graphic novel illustrator and children’s book illustrator, Spyder also spent decades making some of the most vibrant, thought-provoking and ground-breaking concert posters for shows in and around Edmonton. These works are not only an important piece of Spyder's output, but an archive of musical movements and counter-culture.
While Edmonton poet, photographer and music archivist, Corey Hamilton was scanning Spyder Yardley-Jones' poster art, it dawned on them that a comprehensive book of Spyder's poster art has never been published before. They decided to rectify this error, finally! The book compiles Spyder's posters from approximately 1979 to 2008.
To celebrate the publishing, there will be a launch at the legendary CKUA. It will be all ages, with no cost to attend.
