CATHERINE E. WEINSTEIN POSTER ART: 2 POSTERS, ARTIST\'S PHOTO READY PASTE UP ARTWORK, FOR SWAMI SATCHIDANANDA TALK, APRIL 8, 1971 AT CIVIC THEATER, PORTLAND, OR- 11\" X 17\" EXCELLENT CONDITION
DESCRIPTION AND CONDITION:
Here is a collection of 3 items promoting a public talk by yoga master Swami Satchidanda, created by renowned Portland poster artist, the late Catherine E. Weinstein (AKA Thunderbitch and Hedda Goldspace). Swami Satchidanda played a major role in bringing yoga to America. He came to America in the mid sixties (at the behest of artist Peter Max), eventually becoming a US citizen. He wrote numerous books and was a activist for peace. Satchidananda\'s fame was enhanced by being the opening speaker at Woodstock.There are two posters, on off-white, heavy, slick stock, as well as the artist\'s original completed camera-ready paste-up artwork, with a black and white glossy promotional photo of Swami Satchidananda attached to the white, bristol board stock, surrounded by a fine lined, ornate, filigree design rub off border, with black rub off lettering below - Minor, non-distracting handling in a few spots (See photo closeups). The posters have no, rips, creases or tears, but there are some very light stains that can be seen in the pictures. Approximately 200 of the posters were printed. These items came directly from the artist\'s archive and were never hung or exposed to the elements. They are all mint minus.Weinstein was recently featured in Northwest female poster artist retrospective named \"Thunderbitch\" in her honor, at The Tether Gallery in Seattle. Weinstein was a quirky, mercurial, larger than life character. The following link will take you to a page about the gallery show that includes an extensive bio of the artist. Catherine Wienstein Bio
