Paul DavisGeorge McGovern Presidential Campaign ( Alt ) - Che Guevara Poster Artist1972
1972
About the Item
From the artist who created the famous Che Guevara poster comes another powerful political portrait. With the same graphic boldness, Paul Davis depicts the presidential candidate George McGovern proudly rising above the landscape of America.
Paul Davis symbolizes urban America with a stylized skyscraper city on the left and to the right a rural town with a hilly backdrop.
We can not find a published version of this artwork.
It appears the 1972 McGovern campaign who commissioned the artwork passed on it for a version reminiscent of Norman Rockwell,
where the candidate's face appears in the center of a composite showing the diversity of the American populace.
While the cartoony published version " Together with McGovern" ( Libary of Congress ) may have been better for its wide political appeal,
the alternate version shown here has greater artistic merit in its simple and powerful presentation with a stenciled headline.
In his time, Davis was a giant name in graphic design and illustration. He did many posters during the 1970's and 1978's and his most iconic was that of Che Guevara.
