I’m a big fan of Stan­ley Mouse, one of the most rec­og­nized 1960s psy­che­delic rock con­cert poster artists, and prob­a­bly best known for his Grate­ful Dead album cover art. He also helped define the look of some of the most famous bands in Rock and Roll his­tory includ­ing the Bea­t­les, Eric Clap­ton, Janis Joplin, Led Zep­pelin, Jimi Hen­drix, Jour­ney, The Steve Miller Band, and of course, The Grate­ful Dead. His work has been instru­men­tal in trans­form­ing art and design in myr­iad and incal­cu­la­ble ways. It should go with­out say­ing that I am really look­ing for­ward to the open­ing of this art exhibit. More infor­ma­tion avail­able at marinmoca.org
