About the Item

Gruau's 1980 original poster for "Lido Cocorico" is a dazzling testament to the glamour and sophistication of the cabaret world. This poster not only promotes a renowned entertainment venue but also showcases the exceptional talent of its creator, Gruau. René Gruau, born in Italy in 1909 and later becoming a naturalized French citizen, was celebrated as one of the most influential fashion illustrators and poster artists of the 20th century. His remarkable career spanned several decades, and his work became synonymous with elegance and style. Gruau's distinctive artistic style was characterized by bold, sweeping lines, and a refined color palette. His illustrations graced the pages of prestigious fashion magazines like Vogue, Harper's Bazaar, and Elle, and his collaborations with renowned fashion designers, including Christian Dior and Hubert de Givenchy, left an indelible mark on the world of haute couture. The 1980 poster for "Lido Cocorico" is a prime example of Gruau's ability to capture the essence of elegance and sophistication. His work was not confined to fashion; it extended to the world of entertainment, where he continued to bring his artistic flair to life. "Lido Cocorico," a legendary cabaret in Paris, found in Gruau an artist who could translate its spirit into a visual masterpiece. The poster serves as a glittering invitation to experience the magic of the cabaret, positioning it as a world of sophistication and spectacle. Gruau's use of vibrant reds, blacks, and whites creates a visual symphony that draws the viewer into the heart of the cabaret. The elegant silhouettes of the performers, adorned in glamorous costumes, convey the sensuality and allure of the cabaret experience.
