The Rolling Stones La Habana Cuba Ciudad Deportiva 25 De Marzo De 2016 8:30 PM Satisfaction [...]
Acquisition Number: 2017-306
Notes:
Designed to salute the historic March 25, 2016 concert in Havana by Mick Jagger and the Rolling Stones. The concert was the first by a major international rock group in Cuba, and it followed the re-establishment of diplomatic relations between Cuba and the United States after 50+ years. This brilliant, limited-edition Pop Art screen-print shows Mick Jagger against a red background with the word Satisfaction repeated–a reference, of course, to the Rolling Stones’ 1965 mega hit. The free concert in Havana drew hundreds of thousands to the city’s Ciudad Deportiva (Sports City) complex. The audience included the designer of this poster. Award-winning Cuban painter, illustrator and graphic artist Arístides Hernández , who is known as ARES.
