Poster art for the Massillon Museum's exhibition dedicated to preserving the rich folklore of mark-making while safeguarding its enigmatic legacy. The museum's mission is to showcase these monikers and artifacts in a space that contrasts the rough and noisy rail yards where they were born -offering a quiet, clean gallery setting that invites reflection and appreciation for the art form's raw beauty.
The team traveled across the United States, focusing on regions where mark-making has flourished. They met face-to-face with legendary artists, gathering oral histories to ensure their stories and legacies are preserved for generations to come. Over the past three years, they've carefully collected images, artifacts, sounds, and contemporary artwork, creating a comprehensive exhibition and catalog. The Massillon Museum is committed to documenting this unique part of railroad heritage, ensuring it remains a vital piece of history for the future.
