Mug Worthy

 

PROJECT: Mug Worthy
WHERE: Worthy Brewing Taps & Tacos (far East Wall).
STYLE: Andy Warhol Fauvian Color/Screen Print
OBJECTIVE: Create a stunning Worthy Outlaw Wall that will cast a new light on artistic and scientific revolutionaries.
DIMENSIONS: Entire Wall around the Salsa Bar (TBD).
Description: Take icons and convert to Warhol style. Think the album color of "Some Girls", "Marilyn Monroe," and even Andy Warhops. We take each mugshot and colorize with Warhol Fauvian palate. Details not important. Most of the pictures are black and white mugshots. The best have a placard identifying name, prison, year. For those who do not have the classic mugshot, we invent our own (basically a frontal and side profile). Again, it's sufficent to have the name and date of incarceration, eg. John Lennon, 1968. Obviously we create our own mugshots for Galileo and Fydor Dostoyeski and Oscar Wilde.
The Question: How do we reproduce thse photos easily in the Warholian color scheme? Do we print out each image as an 8 x 11? Do we combine 4-8 per poster and recreate the posters? My image is a white wall with WORTHY OUTLAWS banner, with spotlights on the images. Would it be easier and less expensive to combine 4-8 per poster? Or do one at a time on a standard frame (smaller the better).
Depending on the size and cost restrictions, RGW will decide the number we will use, and the "outlaws"we will use. The message will be clear, to do anything big, important and lasting, you have to risk ruffling a few feathers and even breaking the law.
