GET INVOLVED
2nd July - 1st August
It’s a rare and joyous thing when a clubnight’s promotional material is worth celebrating, which is why Concrete Hermit is delighted to announce a retrospective show of posters created for London club, Get Involved.
The posters produced during Get Involved’s three year tenure at central London venue The Social, collected and exhibited here for the first time, were designed by some of the most in-demand image-makers working today such as Build, Anthony Burrill, Jon Burgerman, Dave the Chimp, James Joyce, Jeremyville, Kate Moross and Ian Stevenson.
Concrete Hermit will be exhibiting each poster, reprinted especially for the show, as well as photographs taken at Get Involved by photographer Dean Chalkley. Contributing artist James Joyce and design duo Crispin Finn will be offering signed and editioned Get Involved prints for sale exclusively through the gallery.
Some of the imagery created for Get Involved posters has subsequently appeared in various publications including The Pictoplasma Character Encyclopaedia (Pictoplasma, 2006), Pens Are My Friends (IdN, 2008) and Airside’s 2007 calendar. The maraca-wielding monster Peskimo conceived to appear on the Get Involved poster they designed in 2006, now exists as one of their BambooZoo series of collectible toys, created in collaboration with Kidrobot.
Concrete Hermit will be exhibiting reprints of each poster, created especially for the exhibition, and contributing artists James Joyce and design duo Crispin Finn will be offering signed and editioned Get Involved prints for sale exclusively through the gallery
