BART map inspires poster of The Fillmore’s upcoming shows

Designer Jose Garcia at Zoca Studio Inc. used a familiar Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) map to showcase the Fillmore’s 50 upcoming fall concerts. Ironically, you can’t take BART directly to this historic San Francisco music venue. Still, it’s a really neat design.

Here’s the real BART System Map for comparison:

Speaking of Fillmore and its posters, if a show sells out ahead of time, they’ll hand you a cool, artist-created poster for free on the way out as a gift. These posters are uniquely sized, usually at 13″ X 19″, and stores carry special frames to display them. My first one was from 1995 for the Nancy Sinatra/Lee Hazelwood show. It was my first introduction to the work of mosaic pop artist, Jason Mecier, who created the original art in pasta and beans.
