Smokey Robinson Adds Flatstock To Next Week's Itinerary
Smokey Robinson is making a quick stop at Flatstock 24 in Austin, Texas next Thursday. The poster exhibit is produced by the American Poster Institute and South By Southwest. Robinson will be there to sign copies of a limited edition print featuring his image. Artist Shepard Fairey -- who created the Robinson art for the poster -- will also be on hand to sign the prints. Fairey ascended to fame during the 2008 U.S. Presidential campaign when he created the iconic "Hope" poster featuring Barack Obama.
In related news, the 70-year-old Robinson will serve as keynote speaker at South By Southwest 2010. South by Southwest week begins in Austin, Texas today. For more information, visit www.sxsw.com. |
