Fillmore Poster Art
August 12 - September 4, 2017
Fillmore Poster Art is a curated collection of show souvenirs created by San Francisco artist, Reuben Rude.
Continuing the tradition begun by Bill Graham in 1966, The Fillmore has constantly created and distributed to concert attendees a complimentary 12 x 19 poster of each show presented at their live music venue. For nearly a decade, Rude has been one of just a few artists that designs these posters.
This pop-up exhibition will showcase about 35 show posters that Rude has created throughout his career.
