We are proud to announce our latest publication – Video Tonfa features 300 of Tim Goodyear’s movie reviews with hand drawn recreations of the movie’s original advertising or VHS box art.

In 2009, Tim Goodyear turned his sketchbook into a journal of the movies he watched, focusing on VHS & DVD for an eclectic & personal film history. For each video he redrew the original box art & substituted the text with his own reflections. Video Tonfa is more than a book of movie reviews, it’s a chronic memoir of over 300 video visitations.

Tim Goodyear will exhibit dozens of Video Tonfa originals for a First Thursday exhibit and release party this May.

WHO: Tim Goodyear
WHAT: Video Tonfa release party and exhibit
WHEN: Thursday, May 5th, 6-10pm
WHERE: Floating World Comics, 400 NW Couch St
