OKPANTS Posters

2006-2010

4 (Linear feet)

The OKPANTS Posters span the years 2006 to 2010, and consist of 12 concert posters designed and created by Aaron Sechrist through his company OKPANTS. The concert posters feature various performers, including Adele, Angels & Airwaves, Alice Cooper, Fall Out Boy, Lil Wayne, Nas, and Slayer, and North East Ohio concert venues. The collection provides a sampling of Sechrist's artistic work, across musical genres and artistic styles. Seen in a broader context, the collection provides insight to how mainstream and alternative rock bands, hip-hop artists, and venues promoted their shows in the early 2000s and serves as a reference to performers that played during that era. The OKPANTS Posters are arranged chronologically by date of performance.

OKPANTS is owned and operated by graphic artist and designer Aaron Sechrist. Located in the Tremont section of Cleveland, Ohio, Sechrist creates concert posters for performers appearing at local venues, such as the House of Blues and Blossom Music Center. He has also worked for companies such as Red Bull, and designs t-shirts for his own Protect Your Neck clothing line.
