What do you have hanging on the walls of your apartment/home?

I have a studio apartment, so I've very little wall space considering all the other crap I've piled in here

(All of these images can be clicked on for more info/or to be enlarged.)

Bob Willoughby print of The Graduate with Mrs. Robinson standing in front of the camera smoking a cigarette and Dustin Hoffman at the end of the hallway, just looking at her.



A rather large (5'x4') framed print of Me'Shell NdegéOcello that was taken by Mark Seliger that one several awards for Seliger and Rolling Stone magazine. Got it from a Red Hot auction at Amazon a couple of years ago for $1000... it's so big it cost another $500 just to frame. It's autographed by Seliger and NdegéOcello.



Another print by Bob Willoughby, this one is of Marilyn Monroe. You can't help but wonder what she's thinking



A framed promotional poster for Prince's "The Black Album".

Concert flyer for Me'Shell's June 10, 1996 concert at The Rage.

Framed concert flyer for Me'Shell's June 11, 1996 concert at The Showbox in Seattle.

Framed Flavia picture that my Mom sewed. It says "Music Is Love - In Search of a Word."

Framed limited edition print (#69/100) of Me'Shell's Peace Beyond Passion tour. Dates listed on the print are from June 2-12th, 1996.

Framed limited edition print of Prince's April 10 & 11, 1993 stop in San Francisco. Since I went to this show, I also have the ticket in the frame... it looks awesome. It costs over $200 to frame when I found this print back in 1994.



Framed limited edition print of Prince's November 10 & 11, 1988 stop in Oakland.



Rather large frame of autographed Joan Fontaine photographs that she sent to me when I was in love with her after seeing her in Alfred Hitchcock's "Rebecca" and "Suspicion."

Framed poster promoting Prince's "The Hits". It has 17 photographs of Prince from various time periods.

Coming soon: Just purchased signed limited edition (of 100) print. This poster was made specially for the OX-OP Gallery show in Minneapolis. It's now out of print. It cost $184 to frame



Tomio Seike (photographer) print of woman drying her face. One of my all-time favorite photographs.

Why did I think this thread was about something else?

My photography work and art work by other famous and non famous peeps. A poster from the movie trainspotting...and that is it. I need more wall space that is the problem. the walls are going to explode from having so much stuff on them

bulletin board, wooden masks, Pomo and Hupa pottery on shelves, Louis Armstrong, Lenny Kravitz, Prince, k.d. lang tastefully framed posters.. Jackson 5 concert poster, maps, a calendar, photo collages

I forgot the bathroom

Have you tried putting stuff on the ceiling?

oops, almost forgot: above my record player i made a little mini-collage. it sez, "each sphere giving off a sound--on now..." and everytime i have an album playin i prop up the album cover against the wall under the sign.

...now m, you should also ask what's stuck on our refrigerators, cuz that's where most of my stuff is hung up (i gotta teeny studio apartment, too )...

Blue tack and stains.

matt said:

i'd do that too, but the ceiling's too high up in my apartment...

matt said:

o but I am about to

suomynona said:

We've got a ton of wall space and it's mostly bare, but the stuff that is up was all chosen by my wife... things like pictures of flowers. One exception: I have this poster (professionally mounted) on the wall of my den:



I have a bunch of other stuff that's framed, but since they're professional credentials (e.g., diplomas and bar admission certificates), I've hung them on the walls of my office.

matt said:

and I've got it in my bedroom

Handclapsfingasnapz said:

Our last apartment was like that--I think the ceilings were 14 feet high. I'm glad the ceiling lights never burned out--we would have had to put in a maintenance request just to get the bulbs changed.

matt said:

Oh I bet Kim is loving this one

INSATIABLE said:

It is beautiful, isn't it? And I'm not just saying that as a horny male.

matt said:

MostBeautifulGrlNTheWorld said:

She refuses to look at it.

matt said:

Beautiful stuff.


I have bunches of dried roses everywhere. Very beautiful. I would like Rembrandts The Prodigal Son framed over the fireplace. (The colors coincidentally will match as well.) I need to get on that.

Hmmm... I like this one too:

I love the Mrs Robinson pic.

I just watched the movie yesterday, actually.

That moment they are in the hotle room the first time and he wants to leave and then changes his mind and closes the bathroom door...

Just before the dark hits there is this shot of Mrs Robinson that is just SO classy.

gooeythehamster said:

i couldn't agree more... great movie... i was 20 when i first saw that, and immediately went out and had a customized bumpersticker for my vw bug that read "Hello Mrs. Robinson!"
heheh...

heheh, gooey began his own "the graduate" appreciation thread while i was throwing this reply to him together, you can find what was originally posted here, here... enjoy
