Harold Hedd creator Rand Holmes retrospective art show trailer




Rand Holmes was Canadas most revolutionary artist in his heyday, the star cartoonist at the Georgia Straight newspaper in British Columbia during the 1970s. He spent his last 20 years on a remote island in the Straits of Georgia where he lived out his dreams of pioneering and homesteading. He died in March 2002 from Hodgkins lymphoma and a retrospective exhibition of his original work was held five years later at the Lasqueti Island community hall. LINK: Youtube

Patrick Rosenkranz, author of a great history of underground comics called Rebel Visions: The Underground Comix Revolution, sent this trailer for his Rand Holmes Retrospective film. LINK: Boingboing
