Judy Haas
Embellished Posters
Gallery 81435

Gallery 81435 in Telluride, Colorado will be featuring the work of local artist, Judy Haas, for her exhibition, Embellished Posters, on display through September 2020.
 
Since the sixties, Judy Haas has been inspired by the art of rock music. The images and artists are unique. Originally intended for inexpensive promotional devices, rock posters evolved into extraordinary visual equivalents of the music they advertise. The posters themselves are created by many different artists. Some of them are silk-screens and signed by the artist. Some of them are “show editions,” rare and no longer in print. Vintage movie and stone lithograph posters are unique and were produced from 1900-1960. All of the posters are embellished with imported Swarovski crystals, diamond dust, and/or hand cut paper.
 
Judy Haas lives and works in Telluride. She has been a professional artist since 1985, showing her work nationally and internationally. She is well known for her colorful handmade pastel drawings of trout. Her mediums include pastel on paper, ceramics, computer generated fractals, mixed media prints and projects. She has illustrated two books, Being a Mother & The Grace of Mary. She participated in the Art in the Embassies program and many companies including Patagonia, The Nature Company, and Andrews McMeel have used her images. She has shown her work at Alexander Gallery in New York, Beadleston Gallery in New York and London, Meredith Long Gallery in Houston, American Museum of Flyfishing in New Hampshire, and many galleries in Sun Valley, Vail, Aspen and Telluride.
