Burlesque of North America updated their website for the first time in a very very long time and it looks oh-so-nice. They are a Minneapolis-based silkscreen and poster design shop that has risen to the top by generating amazing work and bringing about some amazing artists like Aaron Horkey. It doesn’t get much better than Burlesque. Go there and spend some money.

Ed at Ferndale, Michigan-based design and screen printing studio The Silent Giants has been keeping me posted as to their progress and it has been nothing but progress since they started. Every update to their website and portfolio is something amazing and I am just ever-impressed by what they are doing. Some of their recent poster and packaging work is beautiful stuff.

It’s been a really long time since I have said anything about the Iskra Print Collective but in between then and now they have been busy creating some dead sexy gig posters. I would be more than happy to hang anything from their catalog on my wall.

Seatle-based Sasha Barr has some really nice screen printed poster work in his portfolio at This Is The New Year. All of the posters possess a really loving touch and he isn’t afraid to experiment with different styles which is great.
