Yusaku KamekuraExpo 1970 World Exhibition in Osaka – Original Vintage Japanese Poster1967
1967
About the Item
Original Vintage Event Poster created 1967 by one of the best known Japanese graphic artists, Yusaku Kamekura; in 1960 he was a founding member, then director of Nippon Design Centre before he was appointed as chairman of the Japan Graphic Designers Association.
His design for the Expo poster (he got the commission as soon as 1967 – the responsible people had a pretty farsighted view...) is a quite great allegory of the theme of progress and harmony: a blooming cherry blossom, light in the dark, a lot of dynamics...

General Dynamics, Exploring the Universe, Sub-Atomic Worlds – Original Poster
By Erik Nitsche
Located in Zurich, CH
A poster belonging to Erik Nitsche's second series for General Dynamics, promoting its nuclear research.
Founded 1952, General Dynamics hired Nitsche as Art Director – a Swiss (1908 – 1998) educated at the Collège Classique in his birth town Lausanne and at the Kunstgewerbeschule in Munich. 1934 he emigrated to the United States and became an incredibly versatile graphic designer whose work became exemplary modernist.
General Dynamics for its part focused on – amongst others – aerodynamics, aerospace, electronics and nuclear power. So here the company had a problem: Only a few years after Hiroshima and Nagasaki it wasn’t exactly the simplest thing to explore nuclear energy and not to be suspected of developing weapons of mass destruction.

He created four poster series. Atoms for Peace was the first consisting of eleven posters. The second was made for the Conference 1958; these posters are titled Exploring the Universe and represent different aspects of technological research. The third series promoted General Dynamics’ departments. The last series of six smaller posters...
