About the Item
One of our favourite new additions to the collection, the stunning Polish Ksiazka Dla Ewy/Book for Ewa poster.
Created to promote reading Ksiazka Dla Ewy/Book for Ewa for published by Polish book retailer power-house Dom Książki. Featuring a beautiful design by Witold Janowski, it was printed for the 25th anniversary of Dom Książki.
Janowski's design wonderfully illustrates how immersive reading can be with the flowers leaping off the page into the mind of the reader. Simply stunning.
The end of the Second World War marked the dawn of a new period in the development of Polish poster art, which became known as the Polish School of Posters. The recently installed Communist regime began commissioning artists to design posters not only with social and political messages, but also, and more prominently, to promote the many aspects of the government-run (Ministry of Art and Culture) cultural media: concerts, exhibitions, film, jazz, opera, theatre, etc. and the circus (cyrk in Polish). The artists were instructed to reject Western values in their posters and were to follow rules about appropriate messaging, but other than that, they had complete artistic freedom. This resulted in some truly unique and bold designs, chock-full with individual personality, wit and subversive commentary. Heavy in metaphors and symbolism and executed in a painterly fashion with handcrafted typography the posters of the Polish School of Posters significantly influenced the international development of graphic design. The highly original designs remain contemporary to this day and continue to gain appreciation.
This vintage movie poster is in fantastic rolled condition and is sized 26 1/4 x 38 1/4 inches. It will be sent rolled (unframed).
