Marq Spusta is an American artist born in 1977 who grew up in rural Wisconsin and earned a BFA in Graphic Design from the University of Wisconsin. Stout before settling in California. He is best known for wildly colorful, intricately detailed concert posters and fine-art screen-prints that merge visionary landscapes with whimsical characters reminiscent of Dr. Seuss and Jim Henson.
His early gig-poster work for bands such as Widespread Panic, Phish, Tom Petty and the Rolling Stones quickly made him a mainstay of the rock-poster community, while his sell-out solo shows at Spoke Art, Bottleneck Gallery, Gabba Gallery and Decadent Art Gallery have pushed his imagery into the contemporary art market. Working primarily in acrylic and ink, Spusta builds layers of translucent pigment and metallic overlays until trees shimmer and creatures appear to glow from within, a technique he honed during years of hand-pulled screen-printing.
Recent projects include a mini-documentary shot at Further Frames in Denver, limited resin sculptures and large canvas paintings exhibited in Los Angeles, Seattle and San Francisco. Whether designing a festival poster or a gallery painting, Spusta approaches each piece as a portal to an enchanted ecosystem, inviting viewers to step inside radiant forests where music, memory and imagination echo in every leaf.
