Malleus is an internationally renowned art collective based in Italy, best known for its psychedelic rock-inspired posters, screenprints, and artworks that merge music, mysticism, and striking visual design. Founded in the early 2000s, Malleus is comprised of artists Urlo, Poia, and Lu, who together bring backgrounds in illustration, music, and design to their collaborative practice. The collective’s name, meaning “hammer” in Latin, reflects both the force and impact of their creative vision.
Drawing inspiration from Art Nouveau, Surrealism, Pop Art, and underground psychedelia, Malleus produces work that feels simultaneously vintage and modern. Their posters often feature organic, flowing lines, intricate patterns, bold female figures, and an otherworldly atmosphere. These visual elements are tied closely to the music scene, as Malleus has designed limited-edition gig posters for some of the world’s most iconic bands, including The Black Keys, Foo Fighters, Queens of the Stone Age, and Monster Magnet. Each piece is hand-printed in small runs, making their work highly collectible among fans of both music and art.
In addition to concert posters, Malleus creates fine art prints, album artwork, and large-scale illustrations. Their art embodies a unique fusion of countercultural sensibilities with fine craftsmanship, often using silkscreen techniques and experimental materials to achieve richly textured results. The collective also plays an active role in the international “rock poster” movement, regularly exhibiting at festivals, galleries, and cultural events worldwide.
Malleus stands out not only for its distinctive aesthetic but also for its collaborative ethos, blending music and visual art into a singular, immersive experience that resonates with fans across generations.
