Eddie Chambers
Eddie Chambers is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.
Eddie Chambers made screen-printed posters that put bold text and striking portraits on public walls. In 1987 he turned Marcus Garvey into an eight-color poster that looked like a rally poster you could hang in your kitchen. The image uses a photographic screen of Garvey’s face above the phrase “Marcus Garvey speaks again!”, a direct nod to the 1920s Universal Negro Improvement Association style.
Tap Marcus Garvey to see the full print and the crisp halftone dots that keep the era alive.
