Jon Burgerman Joins the Renmen Project
Jon has joined the Renmen Project! Per their blog:
He’s very kindly filled up a book of blank postcards with a stack of hand-drawn one-off doodles, which we will be selling in our shop in the not-too-distant future.
Renmen’ is the Haitian word for Love, the bird in the logo is the Hispaniolan Trogon, the national bird of Haiti. ‘The Renmen Project‘ has been brought together by the team at Thunder Chunky and Ben The Illustrator in order to raise funds for UNICEF’s Haiti Appeal. Throughout 2010, they will be working with a selection of top artists and designers from around the world to create artwork to sell online. Every penny made from art sales will be going to UNICEF’s Haiti Earthquake Children’s Appeal.

Posse Spotting: San Diego Comic-Con
Naturally, I had nothing to do with this sticker appearing next to the handy trolley route map during San Diego’s Comic-Con 2010. My role is merely the observer, and it was nice to observe that despite the clean-up efforts of the SDCC crew, the Posse represented night and day. You can find more of my non-posse-related SDCC photos here.
Posca-based Coup d’états
A pair of original hand-drawn, signed, framed and mounted works has made its way onto Burgerplex. At left we have, Coup De Vile and at right we have In The Coup. Each measures 52 x 68.5 cm / 20.5 x 27″ and was made with Posca pen and pencil crayon on archival paper. They are selling for £450 or ~ $700.
Giant Musical Doodles Poster
Jon’s definitely been exploring a new and musical chapter in his life recently, so it’s only fitting that he’d combine his love for music and doodles into one giant hybrid poster monster. The high quality print on 230gsm uncoated art paper is a massive format, portrait size 100×70 cm / 39.6×27.6″ beast sent rolled in a a strong card tube for £15 or ~ $23. I’ve learned via Jon’s Flickr that the above poster is being modeled by “the lovely Mel”. Check it out at Burgerplex here.
Lossy Botany Lab: The Doodles (and More)
Above you see our heroes: the evening’s artist, Jon, flanked by Jeps and Evelien (of Darker and the Dutch Doodlesplatter posse) who made the trek from The Netherlands to the Lossy Botany Lab show at Hamburg’s heliumcowboy artspace. As with most of Jon’s shows, there is a ton of work, so here’s just a glimpse at some of the doodles (many of which were plant-based matter-themed) captured for us by J & E. Stay tuned (or look back) for a plethora of posts [click here for current tag archive], each concerning a separate element of the installation and exhibit. Click through for a gallery of images and price list from the event. Thanks to Jeps and Evelien for all the great visuals!
Lossy Botany Lab: The Wood Panels
Here we see the wood panels Jon incorporated into his Lossy Botany Lab show at Hamburg’s heliumcowboy artspace. Click here to see the humble beginnings of these colorful panels. I think this work looks great on wood, and it ties in with the Lossy Botany Lab theme, as well. All photos courtesy of Jeps and Evelien of Darker and the Dutch Doodlesplatter posse. Stay tuned for a plethora of posts [click here for current tag archive], each concerning a separate element of the installation and exhibit.
Lossy Botany Lab Sneak Peeks Part 3: Getting Sketchy
Jon always fills a sketchbook in prep for a show or a painting. Here, he’s shared with Doodlesplatter some of his preliminary sketches for The Lossy Botany Lab at heliumcowboy artspace in Hamburg. Throughout today, you’ll see more of how these doodles were fleshed out. The show opens in ONE DAY on July 1st! Jeps will be representing and picture-taking on behalf of the Dutch posse! In the meantime, you can see a tag archive of all previews and sneaks here.
Lossy Botany Lab Sneak Peeks Part 2: Color on Canvas
Yesterday, we got some Felt Mistress plush peeks and some outlines and splashes of color for Jon’s upcoming solo show, The Lossy Botany Lab at heliumcowboy artspace in Hamburg. Today, we’ve got still more sneaks of work-in-progress. This should be a very interesting show, because as a vegetarian, plants are central to Jon’s diet. As the saying goes, you are what you eat. Basically, Jon Burgerman is a salad. Lossy Botany Lab opens July 1st at 8PM. Stay tuned for sketches and installations!
