Max Mahn is the creative force behind Twin Home Prints, a prolific screen print and design studio based in Missoula, Montana, United States. Born and raised in the mountain west, Mahn has cultivated a distinct aesthetic that resonates deeply within the limited edition art print and gig poster collector community. His work often features a meticulous blend of organic textures, intricate linework, and a thematic focus on wildlife, Americana, and the rugged beauty of the natural world. By focusing on the tangible craft of screen printing, Mahn has carved out a significant niche for himself among enthusiasts who value the tactile quality of hand pulled prints and the exclusivity of small batch runs.

Mahn first began focusing on art during his formative years, but his professional trajectory solidified while attending the University of Montana. It was during his time in the School of Art that he honed his technical skills in printmaking and graphic design, ultimately earning his Bachelor of Fine Arts. This formal education provided the foundation for his mastery of the serigraphy process, allowing him to transition from a student of the medium to a professional illustrator whose work is sought after by major musical acts and art galleries alike. His background in Missoula remains a core part of his identity, as the local landscape frequently serves as the primary inspiration for his most celebrated compositions.

Significant accomplishments in the career of Max Mahn include a vast portfolio of official concert posters for some of the most influential names in music. He has designed and printed limited edition works for artists such as The Avett Brothers, Wilco, Dead and Company, Old Crow Medicine Show, and Tyler Childers. Beyond the music industry, his achievements extend to high profile collaborations with outdoor brands and conservation organizations, bridging the gap between commercial illustration and fine art. The collector community highly prizes his ability to capture the essence of a performance or a brand through a singular, hand crafted image that feels both nostalgic and fresh.

The art shows and gallery exhibitions featuring Max Mahn have spanned across the country, showcasing his versatility as a printmaker. He is a frequent participant in prestigious poster shows such as Flatstock, which takes place at major festivals like South by Southwest in Austin and Bumbershoot in Seattle. His work has also been featured in dedicated gallery settings including the Hellgate Industries shows and various exhibitions at the Moon Gallery. These events provide a platform for collectors to engage with his larger format art prints and rare variants, further cementing his reputation as a premier talent in the modern printmaking scene.

Among his most famous pieces of art are his stunningly detailed depictions of fauna, such as the Great Horned Owl and the American Bison, which have become staples of his personal art print catalog. His gig posters, particularly the 2019 Wilco Missoula print and his various designs for The Avett Brothers, are considered essential acquisitions for serious poster collectors. Each piece reflects Mahn’s commitment to the slow art movement, where every layer of ink is thoughtfully considered and every edition is curated for quality. His work continues to influence the collector community by maintaining a high standard of craftsmanship and a deep connection to the illustrative traditions of the American West.
