Vice Press and Grey Matter Art are teaming up to release limited edition movie posters by Matt Ferguson for four iconic John Carpenter films – The Fog, They Live, Escape From New York and Prince of Darkness – in classic cinema quad sizing! Starting on Thursday, January 10th, and running for one week only, VP and GMA will be giving collectors the opportunity to purchase these fantastic retro posters in their classic cinema quad size of 40”x30”.
As artist Matt Ferguson explained, “Last year I had the distinct pleasure of being hired by StudioCanal to work on the 4K John Carpenter classics. I conceptualized and made all of the key art for the films. It was a dream job for me and I am really happy the art came out pretty much exactly as I intended. My ideal versions of the art are the UK quad size, it's the way the art was intended to be viewed and also my personal favorite dimensions for movie posters, so I am really happy that we are getting to make these available to people.”
Each John Carpenter Quad Movie Poster Fine Art Print by Matt Ferguson will be printed on 250gsm Vitesse Silk Paper and retail for £50 / $60. All four movie posters can also be purchased as a set for the discounted cost of £150 / $190. Each print will come signed and numbered by the artist and the total size of the edition will be based on the number of posters ordered during this period.
The Fog, They Live, Escape From New York and Prince of Darkness will be released at the Vice Press online store at 5pm U.K time and at the Grey Matter Art online store at 12pm EST starting on January 10th and ending at the same time on January 17th.
