Book – The Rock Poster Art of Todd Slater

Notes on the actual book:

I’ve been approached twice by separate publishers throughout the years about putting together a book but resisted due to compromises on things like hardcover, larger page size and the actual number of pages.  The patience ended up paying off and after meeting with Chris from the Flood Gallery during SXSW in 2014 and I knew I had found the right partner.  Flood has  produced a stunning product and you can see some past work here on David Bowie’s Golden Years to The Cure Photographs along with Unseen Beatles Photos.  Upon meeting with them it became apparent to me that they weren’t cutting corners and that the art truly transcended everything else.  The Rock Poster Art of Todd Slater is hardback, clocks in at 288 pages and measures 13.1×10.5 inches.  It is a coffee table book in the truest sense of the word.

We organized the book by year starting with 2004 and ending with 2015.  It shows a nice progression in my work and also features full page images of the prints; no thumbnails exist!  

There’s other nice surprises spread throughout the pages including a foreward that’s both thoughtful and hilarious by the unfuckwithable Rob Jones.  You’ll find a number of quotes throughout the pages from my peers as well. Please visit their sites and support them, I’m honored they would be *forced* to say such nice things about me:  Here is a list of the contributors in the order they fall in the book:  Methane Studios, Jeff Kleinsmith, Ken Taylor, Brad Klausen, Jason Edmiston, James Flames, DKNG, Jason Munn, Dan Stiles, Emek, Mark Brickey, Kevin Tong, Jay Ryan, Tyler Stout & Chuck Sperry.
