The circa 1960 travel sérigraphie, Meet All of the East in Malaya, is a captivating piece of promotional art designed to attract tourists to Southeast Asia, particularly Malaya (now part of Malaysia). Created during a time when international travel was booming, the poster was intended to highlight the region’s appeal as a destination, focusing on the richness of its culture, landscapes, and the dynamic contrast between tradition and modernity. The poster was produced using the sérigraphie (screen printing) technique, which was widely used during the mid-20th century for creating bold, vibrant advertisements. Sérigraphie allowed for the mass production of posters with striking colors, making it an effective medium for catching the attention of potential travelers. Posters like this one were instrumental in promoting tourism by visually presenting a destination as a place full of adventure, cultural discovery, and natural beauty. The Meet All of the East in Malaya poster...

The 1965 original Soviet propaganda poster titled "Gloire au peuple soviétique pionnier de l'espace ! Aux étoiles ! Au soleil !" ("Glory to the Soviet people, pioneers of space! To the stars! To the sun!") is a vivid celebration of the Soviet Union's monumental achievements in space exploration. This poster is a quintessential example of how visual art was used as a powerful tool for political messaging and national pride during the Cold War era. This poster heralds the Soviet people as pioneers in space exploration, a theme that resonates with the intense national pride and optimism of the time. The slogan "Gloire au peuple soviétique pionnier de l'espace !" underscores the collective effort and the unity of the Soviet citizens in achieving these remarkable milestones. The phrases "Aux étoiles ! Au soleil !" reflect the ambitious spirit of the Soviet space program, aiming not just for the stars but for the sun itself, symbolizing limitless aspiration and the pursuit of knowledge. The visual elements of this poster, characteristic of Soviet propaganda art, likely include dynamic images of rockets soaring into space, cosmonauts in action, and celestial bodies like stars and the sun. These images are designed to evoke a sense of awe and inspiration. The use of bold, contrasting colors, especially the iconic red associated with Soviet iconography, would convey strength, vigor, and revolutionary zeal. The historical context of this poster is rooted in the space race between the Soviet Union and the United States during the Cold War. By 1965, the Soviet Union had already achieved several significant milestones in space exploration, including launching the first artificial satellite, Sputnik, in 1957, and sending the first human, Yuri Gagarin, into space in 1961. These achievements were not only scientific triumphs but also powerful symbols of the Soviet system's superiority. This poster serves to reinforce the ideological message that the successes in space were a direct result of the socialist system. By linking space exploration to socialism, the poster suggests that the collective, organized, and state-supported efforts of the Soviet people were crucial to these achievements. This narrative was intended to instill a sense of pride and confidence in Soviet citizens and to project an image of Soviet supremacy to the international community. The message of the poster is clear: the advancements in space exploration are a testament to the strength and capability of the Soviet people under socialism. The call "Aux étoiles ! Au soleil !" embodies the forward-looking vision and boundless optimism of the Soviet Union, aiming for ever greater heights and new frontiers. In summary, the 1965 original Soviet propaganda poster "Gloire au peuple soviétique pionnier de l'espace ! Aux étoiles ! Au soleil !" is a powerful piece of art that encapsulates the pride, ambition, and ideological fervor of the Soviet space program. It celebrates the Soviet people as pioneers of space, linking their achievements to the virtues of socialism. This poster not only commemorates significant scientific milestones but also serves as a motivational tool, promoting national unity and ideological commitment during a critical period in history.

Folded Flat Linen 03 Unique work 2016 Dimensions: H: 35 cm / W: 36 cm / D: 9 cm Materials: architectural wire mesh, raw linen Born in 1962 in Boulogne-Billancourt, France, Sebastien De Ganay studied political science and film at Columbia University in New York 1986-1990 ( (Bachelor of Political Science, Master of Fine Arts in Cinema) and is co-founder and editor of the art book publishing house onestar press. In addition to numerous exhibition participations, including the Centre Pompidou in Paris and the Landesmuseum Österreich in St. Pölten, Austria, the Institut Français in Vienna showed a comprehensive solo exhibition of the artist in 2014. In 2017, de Ganay realized a highly acclaimed installation for the Kunsthalle Krems. de Ganay lives and works in Austria. de Ganay produces minimalist abstract art works, painting, relief and wall sculpture. Sculptures made of aluminum, linen fabric, plastic, oil painting, wood and other materials. de Ganay joins a tradition of experimental artists. In this sense, for example, the Achromes by the Italian Arte-Povera artist Piero Manzoni, created in the 1960s, point the way for de Ganay's examination of folded linen fabric. "The process of de Ganay's Painting is the process of thought itself; it is a process which turns not away from painting, but towards it. And rather than seeing painting as closure, he presents his work to us as a space of multiple openings, layers, shadows and reflections. Painting is, as much as an object or a process, a state of flux." (Adrian Searle, art critic for The Guardian, London (1994)) In the style of Readymades and Arte Povera, de Ganay starts out from a simple utility material and combines this with an examination of the surface in the tradition of Minimal Art. He designed a limited edition chair "PLEASE" a “4 Piece Chair” customized by John Baldessari, Lawrence Weiner and Rirkrit Tiravanija.
