About Woodstock (1969)
Woodstock is the flat vermilion field, the plump white dove, the guitar neck, and the fat hand-cut letters that read from a moving VW bus. It is Arnold Skolnick's 1969 poster turned into a full system — screen-printed ink, no gradients, no corners, one warm symbol floating in open space. Everything rounds; everything breathes; everything says pull up a blanket, half a million people are fine.
