TRON & TRON: Legacy GID Screen Prints by Eric Tan

We’re just 1 day away from the premiere of Disney’s TRON: Legacy in theaters, and to commemorate this hotly anticipated film Mondo will be releasing two beautiful glow in the dark screen prints by artist Eric Tan! Each print in this limited edition series focuses on one of the TRON films, TRON and TRON: Legacy.

Eric Tan spoke with the Los Angeles Times about these prints: “When creating posters for each of the Tron films, what immediately came to mind were the parallels between the two worlds and how it had progressed over the years. Since similar elements such as disks, light cycles, and recognizers exist in both, I thought showing the contrast between new and old was a visually interesting angle to play up"

"Linking the two main characters was something I thought would add to the storytelling and the father/son dynamic between Kevin and Sam Flynn. To me, those films are amazing examples of visual candy, and I hope I was able to capture that in my posters.” (link)
