The Get Involved Poster Show opened last night to much whooping (by me) and much quaffing of beer at East London’s ace gallery and shop, Concrete Hermit.

For the show, all the posters created for Get Involved during its three year tenure at central London venue The Social have been reprinted on lovely paper using a posh ink jet (Giclée) printer and framed in white wooden frames. These prints, each in a strict edition of 10, are available to buy for £20 (unframed) or £35 framed. There are also archival ink jet prints of a selection of shots taken at Get Involved by top rock’n'roll photographer Dean Chalkley on show as well as badges to grab and stickers to steal. PLUS limited edition A2 Get Involved prints are available to buy for just £45 by James Joyce and also by Crispin Finn - who designed some bespoke Get Involved wallpaper specially for the event too. NICE! Here are some photos of last night’s launch party taken by Concrete Hermit head honcho, Chris.

Much thanks to all those that came down to the opening, and special thanks goes to Chris at Concrete Hermit, Dean Chalkley, Richard Hogg and Crispin Finn – whose help and encouragement was and is hugely appreciated; and to Roy Richards (who framed the entire show) – and also to Gareth Bayliss who installed the wallpaper and made up the Get Involved stickers that proved so popular.
The exhibition runs until 31 July at Concrete Hermit, 5a Club Row (between Redchurch Street and Bethnal Green Road), London E1 6JX. Go check it out / buy some nice affordable prints!
