Anecdotes/Inspiration behind the work: Well I thought about Scot Campbell's NYE poster from the Madison Square Garden reunion concert, and it had a lunar pod returning to Earth. I took it to symbolize Phish returning to everyone. I think

Anecdotes/Inspiration behind the work: There seem to be mixed reviews of the tune Time Turns Elastic but I really like it. The series is a journey through time of a mythical every woman who gets the best out of life involving herself in the art, music and scene of each decade. Caught in the stylistic artistic approaches of those time periods her true nature shines through, part sea creature (water being the bearer of all things emotional and creative ie: art, music, fashion), part cosmic Alien, part human flesh. Caught on "film" as it were every 30 years (3 of course being the magic number) in the 20s, the 50s, the 80s and lastly now leading into 2010.

VOTE for your favorite posters of 2009

Four concerts will not be the only attraction for Phish fans descending on Miami as 2009 draws to a close. Mock Show: EPIC NYE, a poster exhibition at the Hyatt Regency Hotel, will feature the best poster art paying homage to Phish while raising funds for the nonprofit civic engagement organization HeadCount.

In keeping with HeadCount’s mission of “inspiring participation in democracy through the power of music,” HeadCount and the Mock Show organizers are planning several activities to make the Mock Show a true celebration of democracy. The first starts now, as HeadCount.org hosts a “Mock Election” to select the best Phish-inspired poster art of 2009. Voting begins today at http://www.headcount.org/mockshow.asp and results will be announced at the Mock Show. Winners in each category will be presented the coveted “Golden Tube.”

Artists with multiple nominations – all of whom will have their wares on display at the Mock Show – include Jim Pollock (PollockPrints), A.J Masthay, Ryan Kerrigan, Isadora Bullock, and Justin Helton (Status Serigraph). Categories include “Best Official Phish Print,” “Best Fan Print,” and in a special nod to HeadCount’s mission, “Best Political Art.” HeadCount will also hold balloted voting at the event to recognize the best posters created especially for the Mock Show and Phish’s New Year’s Eve concerts.

The exhibition begins at 10am and is open until 3pm that afternoon. Tickets are on sale at http://www.amockshow.com/ and include a complimentary commemorative 2010 calendar featuring work from many of the artists featured in the exhibition.

Art, Music, Fans Connect At Red Rocks Mock Show

Art, Music, Fans Connect At Red Rocks Mock Show
By: Jamie Huntsman
August 5th, 2009

Last Saturday at a hotel six miles from Red Rocks Amphitheatre, where Phish was playing for four nights, more than 30 artists and hundreds of art lovers and collectors gathered for Mock Show, a poster and art showcase-marketplace. Held in the Sheraton Denver West Hotel’s ballroom, the Mock Show was an art lovers dream that included everyone from well-established artists, such as Jim Pollock and David Welker, to up-and-comers and fan artists (such as myself). I was honored to participate and did pretty well for my first show.

Fans showed up as early as 8 a.m. to get in line to shake hands with Pollock as he personalized posters, converse with Ryan Kerrigan, or see the new works from AJ Masthay. Mock Show was all about connections: connecting fans of the music to the art inspired by the music to the artists who were inspired by the music.

The connections made at Mock Show were not limited to poster artists, however. Several nonprofit organizations participated in the show, including the Mockingbird Foundation, Expresso Beans, Phish’s Waterwheel Foundation, and of course HeadCount. Other connections were made through music (the Heavy Pets played in the hallway) and cinema (the poster documentary American Artifact was screened and Noah Wilderman was there shooting footage for his Phish documentary, Maybe So, Maybe Not.)

While running my booth, I had a unique perspective on Mock Show. I didn’t really get a chance to roam around and see everything I wanted to see (I’m a fan as well as an artist), and I was nervous as hell hoping I would get at least a little traffic to my booth. But in the end, I was overwhelmed by the support I received from the crowd and other artists at the show. A particularly warm and fuzzy moment came when, at the beginning of the show, a woman made a bee line for my booth to purchase my Red Rocks print. She said it was at the top of her list of items to purchase. This rewarding moment eased my nervousness immediately. All that hard work was worth it! And speaking of hard work, I’d like to publically thank Jason Kaczorowski for his hard work in putting this show on. It was an amazing experience for me and everyone else involved.

If you weren’t at Mock Show, you can still visit all the artists online. But, as always, the art is much better in person! Go to http://www.amockshow.com to connect with the artists and see photos and video from the show. And we’ll see you next time.
