Guy Juke was born in San Angelo Texas on September 4th,
1951.
Juke’s father was a local architect who saw natural talent in his
son and gave him encouragement and private art lessons at an
early age. In late 1972 he moved to Austin Texas. While hanging
around the local music scene, the Armadillo World Headquarters
especially, Juke was exposed to the Austin music poster artists.
It wasn’t long before he was producing concert posters for the
likes of Frank Zappa, Ricky Lee Jones, Talking Heads, and too
many more to mention. Numerous illustrations for local magazines
and album covers were designed in years to come. Juke has won
numerous awards for his designs, including one from AIGA. His
classic series of silkscreened posters for local events such as
Carnaval and the Austin Chronicle Music Awards are still coveted
collectors items proudly hanging in Hipster’s homes the world over.
