Escape from New York Screen Print by Gabz

Escape from New York Standard Edition Screen Print “Call me Snake” by Gabz

Here’s the full reveal of Grey Matter Art’s upcoming release “Escape from New York” screen print by Gabz (aka Grzegorz Domaradzki)! As The Blot mentioned last week, this is the first official screen print for the John Carpenter classic released way back in 1981 and starring Kurt Russell as hero Snake Plissken. It’s hard to imagine this is the first licensed Escape from New York art poster since the film was released almost 35 years ago, but boy was it worth the wait! This movie poster is just plain awesome. I love how Gabz was able to recreate the post-apocalyptic vibe of the film with his design.
