Artist Biography: Marco Silombria
Italian Pop Art artist Marco Silombria (Savona, 1936 - Albissola, 2017) was a respected and esteemed painter, sculptor, ceramist, and advertising graphic designer, active in Turin from the late 1960s.
Silombria’s artistic journey began in the 1950s when he studied under Emilio Scanavino, one of Italy’s influential modern artists. He later collaborated with Armando Testa in Turin, creating advertising campaigns for major brands like Fiat, Facis, Superga, and Defonseca from the 1970s to the 1990s. His advertising work is recognized for its strong Pop imprint, effectively merging artistic creativity with commercial appeal.
As one of the founders of the CGSS agency, along with notable advertisers such as Silvio Saffirio, Gagliardi, and Giorgio Caponetti, Silombria signed several successful campaigns, including those for Gallo Rice and the Fiat 127, and designed posters for the Gruppo Finanziario Tessile. His work in advertising showcased his ability to blend artistry with market demands, earning him a reputation in both the art and business communities.
In the 1980s, Silombria transitioned to painting, dedicating himself to openly and decidedly homoerotic art. His works during this period reflect a blend of new Dadaism and Pop Art, often exploring themes of beauty, athleticism, and sexuality. Silombria’s admiration for the male form is evident, as he sought to reinterpret classical motifs and celebrate the aesthetics of the human body in his art.
Always an active advocate for LGBTQ+ rights, Silombria was the “creative mind” behind the first Italian homosexual association, Fuori!, which aimed to promote visibility and rights for the gay community. He was among the first to introduce male nudes in a pop-Dada context to Italy, challenging societal norms and pushing the boundaries of artistic expression.
As a ceramist, Silombria also drew inspiration from Greek mythology and classical culture, further emphasizing his admiration for the statuary male body. His multifaceted contributions to the arts and activism have left a lasting impact on Italian culture and continue to resonate with contemporary audiences.

John Thomas Young Gilroy (30 May 1898 – 11 April 1985) was an English artist and illustrator, best known for his advertising posters for Guinness, the Irish stout. He signed many of his works, simply, "Gilroy".

"Jimi Hendrix original Color Pencil sketch" Fillmore East the very first version
By David Edward Byrd
Located in Southampton, NY
A new coffee table book has just been released titled "Poster Child" The Psychedelic Art & Technicolor Life of David Edward Byrd. This original drawing is featured on page 61 of the book.
David Byrd created some of the most memorable Classic Theatre and Rock and Roll images from the 1960s and 70s. David created ALL of the Art for Bill Graham’s Fillmore East, including their Program covers and Rock posters, the art for Jimi Hendrix’s first Fillmore East appearance, The Rolling Stones 1969 World Tour art, The Who’s Performance of Tommy at the New York Metropolitan Opera House and The Fillmore, and The Grateful Dead Swell Dance Concert to name only a few. He also created the poster art for the original location of the 1969 Woodstock music festival . His memorable images were also used for classic Broadway shows like Godspell, Follies and Jesus Christ Superstar to mention only a few. These museum quality drawings are rarely made available for sale, they are not only wonderful rare works of art, but are truly historically important works in the field of Theatre and Rock and Roll collecting. It has been framed with archival double matting.
David Byrd's poster art is in many museum collections, including : The Louvre, in Paris, Victoria & Albert in London, The Museum of Modern Art in New York and The Smithsonian in Washington, DC.
Featured in this listing is the Original Color pencil Sketch created in 2006 by David Byrd prior to working on the finished painting which we also have available for sale. This drawing created in 2006 is based on David's very first original 1968 drawing for Hendrix's very first Fillmore East concert. It only featured Hendrix, and Bill Graham asked David if he could add the other two members of The Experience, which became the famous Fillmore East orange poster that featured all three members of the Experience. I included and image in this listing of the original pencil drawing from 1968 where you can see Bill requesting all three members to be included in the poster art. In this color rendering, David Byrd indicates two possible color choices for the poster in this sketch by listing the color numbers. He shows one half with one color combination and the other half with a different color combination. That was so that Bill Graham could choose which colors he preferred if the original 1968 poster art was to use this image. A great original color drawing that David Byrd created to show the colors of the first version of the 1968 Hendrix poster...
