JERMAINE ROGERS: The Illustrated Man

An influential artist in the modern resurgence of rock/pop poster art as well as serigraph and fine art production. Rogers has designed poster imagery for musical powerhouses such as Queens Of The Stone Age, Neil Young, Tool, Deftones, Radiohead, Tori Amos, David Bowie, Morrissey, The Cure, and Public Enemy.  He is also a noted designer in the field of limited-edition vinyl art figures with releases through Strangeco, Jamungo and Kidrobot. His work is included in the permanent collections at The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. In this episode, he shares the ins and outs of being a visual artist and reveals the way that he infects his artwork with words and ideas by continuously crafting images that push boundaries, whether social, cultural, or aesthetic. He is riding high on the top shelf of low-brow art.
