Overview

Stanley Mouse is responsible for some of the most enduring & best-loved images to emerge from the counterculture of the '60s. Mouse's art captured the decade's pop look, & was instrumental in linking the art scene to music, the other major art form of the '60s generation. Best known for his posters & album covers, Mouse has done album art for the Beatles, Eric Clapton, Janis Joplin, & many others. The Steve Miller Band's "Book of Dreams" album earned a Grammy Award for Best Graphic Art. His work for the Grateful Dead is probably his most memorable art; with Alton Kelley, he designed the Dead's "skull & roses" emblem as well as many of their most famous posters including the "Blue Rose" poster for the closing of Winterland. FREEHAND is a major retrospective of this gifted artist's work. Along with his music artwork, FREEHAND includes his early "Monster Car" paintings--described by one critic as a cross between Mad Magazine & Paul Klee--as well as the now famous Zig Zag Man. This is not merely a catalog of Mouse's famed poster art, but a comprehensive look at his artistic roots & full flower of his genius, including 96 pages of full-color reproductions of his best work.
