Although the San Francisco psychedelic rock posters of the 1960s are recognized the world over, few know the story and process of how they were made. In this talk, conservator Victoria Binder will share her original research on the creation of these experimental and radical creations, drawing from her extensive conversations with the artists and printers themselves. Following her introduction, we will welcome artist Bob “Raf” Schnepf to the stage for an informal conversation about process, inspiration, and design with Victoria Binder, Senior Conservator/Head of Paper Conservation at the J. Paul Getty Museum.
