WHAT IS FLATSTOCK?:
The
FLATSTOCK poster show series is presented by the American
Poster Institute(API). It is an ongoing series of exhibitions
featuring the work of many of the most popular concert poster artists
working today.
The API is a nonprofit corporation dedicated to serving poster artists
and promoting the art form. Both the API and its FLATSTOCK series
were organized in 2002 as a result of conversations between interested
artists and supporters frequenting the popular web site gigposters.com.
The best concert posters have always captured both the essence of
the music they promoted and the spirit of the time in which they
were produced. This is as true today as it was in San Francisco
during the Sixties. The FLATSTOCK shows provide the general
public with an ongoing series of opportunities to see fine poster
art in person and to meet the artists who've created it -- they
provide the API with a way to present the poster artists collectively
while showcasing the breadth of individual styles they represent.
