Jules Isnard Dransy
Original Visitate l'Exposizione Coloniale Parigi vintage travel poster

1931

About the Item

Original travel poster: Visitate l'Esposizione Coloniale A smiling dusky maiden who looks just like Josephine Baker, pushes aside a blue curtain to reveal the splendors of her native land. Unabashedly, she represents the French colonies being honored at this Parisian international exposition. Dransy was a pseudonym for artist Jules Isnard. Printed by Vercasson, Paris. Italian text. She is inviting Italians to come and visit Paris in 1931 and attend the exhibition. During this time, Josephine Baker was among the most celebrated performers to headline the revues of the Folies Bergère in Paris. (She was the first black woman to star in a major motion picture, the 1927 silent film Siren of the Tropics.) Josephine Baker's name does not appear on this poster but because of her fame during this time frame. This is an Original Lithograph Vintage Poster; it is not a reproduction. This poster is professionally acid-free conservation mounted, linen-backed, and in very good condition. This is an Original Lithograph Vintage Poster; it is not a reproduction.

  • Hamptons International Film Festival poster (hand signed and inscribed) RARE!
    By Cindy Sherman
    Located in New York, NY
    Cindy Sherman Hamptons International Film Festival poster (hand signed and inscribed by Cindy Sherman), 2006 Offset lithograph poster Bold signature and inscription in black marker by Cindy Sherman on the front 32 × 24 inches Unframed This print was made for the 14th Hamptons International Film Festival from October 18-22, 2006. It was boldly inscribed in black marker to Peter by Cindy Sherman. Publisher: Hamptons International Film Festival Cindy Sherman Biography: Born in 1954 in Glen Ridge, New Jersey, Cindy Sherman lives and works in New York NY. Her ground-breaking photographs have interrogated themes around representation and identity in contemporary media for over four decades. Coming to prominence in the late 1970s with the Pictures Generation group alongside artists such as Sherrie Levine, Richard Prince and Louise Lawler, Sherman studied art at Buffalo State College in 1972 where she turned her attention to photography. In 1977, shortly after moving to New York, Sherman began her critically acclaimed Untitled Film Stills. A suite of 69 black and white portraits, Untitled Film Stills sees Sherman impersonate a myriad of stereotypical female characters and caricatures inspired by Hollywood pictures, film noir, and B movies. Using a range of costumes, props and backdrops to manipulate her own appearance and to create photographs resembling promotional film images, the series explores the tension between artifice and identity in consumer culture which has preoccupied the artist’s practice ever since. Sherman continued to channel and reconstruct familiar personas known to the collective psyche, often in unsettling ways. In 1981, the artist created her Centerfolds, a series of photographic double spreads inspired by men’s erotic...
