Monday Murals

From the Avenue of Murals in Kansas City, KS, this one is called the Kansan Printer. It depicts a printer at a handpress. It was designed with the help of retired printers who worked at the Kansas City Kansan newspaper. The artists are Jose Faus and Alisha Gambino.

Oakland Daily Photo said...: Boy do I like this. I was just looking at the WPA murals that Principessa Errante 365 posted. And I can see the lineage from them to your mural. The artists from the Plains states were a big influence during this period and the influence of their style can be seen (or is honored) in this mural. Thanks for posting this and participating in Monday Mural.; June 4, 2012 at 3:22 PM
