Aesthetic Apparatus Exhibits At 501
Can’t spell Aesthetic? Can’t spell Apparatus? Better learn! Because the 501 Club is exhibiting Expressive Works, incredible screen prints by dynamic graphic design and screen printing duo Dan Ibarra and Michael Byzewski, whose company goes by the name – Aesthetic Apparatus.
501 patrons and performers may already be familiar with some of AA’s band posters. They have designed and printed concert posters for bands such as Cake, Frank Black, Spoon, The Hold Steady, The New Pornographers, Dinosaur Jr, Grizzly Bear, Vivian Girls, The Decemberists, Bob Mould, Mark Mallman, Lucinda Williams and more.
Dan and Michael founded Aesthetic Apparatus around 1999 in Madison, Wisconsin, they say, as a fun side project from their real jobs. Their bio further states that “Over the years their limited edition, screen printed concert posters have secretly snuck into the hearts and minds of a small, rather silent group of socially awkward music and design nerds. Now, Aesthetic Apparatus is a full time, full-fledged, insanely unstoppable, and occasionally award winning design mega-studio. They will break your heart and drink your blood.”
Expressive Works by Aesthetic Apparatus is the third in Jon Oulman’s ongoing exhibition program at the 501 Club. This new venue opened with a show by graffiti-based stencil artists John Grider and Mike Fitzsimmons of Broken Crow, then was followed by 20th Century Works on Paper, War and Propaganda from Jon Oulman’s personal art collection.

This exhibit will be installed in time for Pet Rock (Fundraiser for The Pet Project), an all-day music and food event at the 501Club starting at noon on Saturday, September 26. All works in the exhibit are for sale.

l_b46e2e3d01374e2694eb6e73611e4c41

Merely twenty days ago Moonstone leaked a track off their debut record on their MySpace page. Check it out.

These are things  people have said about it…

“holy fuck”

“I just heard Side A of this thing, and it is remarkable. The sermons are pure brilliance.”

“Dam girl, you made my myspace tight again.”

“this is different than i thought it would be. sounds good.”

“Moonstone is into something good. I shall enjoy watching you all line up to kiss their asses.”

“Unfuckwithable.”

“The madness that starts at about 5 minutes in is what closed the deal for real.”

Moonstone plays @ The Turf Club tonight w/ Slapping Purses, Tender Meat & Soaking Rasps (Markus of Skoal Kodiak)

Thanks Greg Schaal!

My landlord was there and he said it was too crowded to enjoy the music. Sounds like the PA went down a few times. He was stoked to see Dave Thomas of Pere Ubu..
