Artist Bio
Malleus is an Italian three-headed collective exploring the boundaries of visual art, from illustration and video to handmade screen printing.
Deeply inspired by Expressionism, Symbolism, Art Nouveau, Surrealism, and Psychedelia, their work is rooted in a unique iconography centered on the female form as a primordial and sacred force.
Blending ancient myth with contemporary culture, Malleus creates powerful hand-drawn artworks that have become iconic in the world of rock poster art.
During the years we’ve printed posters for bands such as Foo Fighters, The Black Keys, Deftones, Iggy Pop & The Stooges, Robert Plant, Queens Of The Stone Age, Mark Lanegan, the Melvins, Crosby Stills and Nash, Sleep, Linkin Park, The Prodigy, Dresden Dolls, The Mars Volta, Mogwai, Motorpsycho, Monster Magnet, Muse, Sonic Youth and many others all over the world.
