Hockney's 1972 Munich Poster

We all know how shit the advertisments, including texts for the upcoming London Olympics looks...

but man check out this poster that Hockney did for the 1972 Munich Olympics.

I really don't get why they didn't hand him a couple of texters and maybe a few coloured pencils and let him go at it free hand.

AWM Coolness

Okay so one of the best parts of landing this pretty cool, well paid job at the Australian War Memorial is that I am based out at their conservation centre, The Treloar Annex. 

You would not believe all the cool shit they have just lying around....Im going to take a bunch of photos over the next few weeks but this Gun Case is pretty much my favourite thing, well apart from the last all male public service workspace, but that's for another day. 

The Label for the case says: Stages in the Australian manufacture of the Lee-enfield 303 Rifle, Basic weapon of the Australian Infantryman in the Two World Wars and Korea.
