Osborn Woods Poster Show

 

GRAVEL & GOLD is delighted to present a collection of original OSBORN/WOODS prints from the 1960s.

Please join us for an opening reception with Charles Woods on Friday, February 19th from 6 to 9pm.

For over fifty years, David Osborn and Charles Woods have been an artistic force in Nevada City, CA. They landed in the old mining town in 1957 after meeting as graduate students at UC Berkeley and went on to run a design and print shop, found the American Victorian Museum, and begin broadcasting the community radio station KVMR. Their bright, enthusiastic lithographs are reminiscent of Sister Corita Kent and the best of 1960s design. Gravel & Gold has assembled 19 original prints from the Seasonal, Ocean, Natural Guide, Travel, and Apocalypse series. They have been framed by Oakland musician Elias Reitz of Gojogo.

 

This is a very special show for us. It's been a dream of ours to present such a collection since we first got started with the shop. And a special show takes special thanks. Praise be to Joe Meade for turning us on to Osborn/Woods and for being such a tremendous support to us and the shop.
