This four-color screenprint is a stunning poster created by modern poster legend Chuck Sperry for Pearl Jam's appearance in Brazil on November 3rd, 2011 with X in support. Two decades after their debut album and breakthrough release, Pearl Jam was touring between the releases of their ninth and tenth studio albums, "Backspacer" and "Lightning Bolt".
Chuck Sperry is the modern master of screenprint posters and early works of his like this are increasingly difficult to acquire as the collector's market for artists grows. Though he is perhaps best known for his posters depicting stunning Greek muses, the poster offered here represents his work before this theme took hold. This poster won "Art of the Week" at expressobeans.com the week it was released, which is now more than 12 years ago!
Though this is the FIRST time this poster is appearing in our auction, it has enjoyed plenty of auction attention from other sources in the last 12 years. In May of 2023, an example sold for $1716.00, and in March of 2022, another example sold for $1100 at auction. The value of this piece is only increasing, and this one remains in wonderful condition. Bid accordingly!
