Cyrk Chimpanzee Cyclist 1980sOriginal Vintage Polish Circus Poster, Gorka, Red
About the Item
Another fantastic design by one of the most celebrated Polish School of Posters artist Wiktor Gorka. We love the colours and design on this wonderful original Polish Circus poster from 1980
The ‘Cyrk” circus poster in Poland appeared for the first time in 1962 when the ZPR (Zjednoczone Przedsiębiorstwa Rozrywkowe, or United Entertainment Enterprises), the state agency that oversaw the circus, commissioned leading artists from the Polish School of Posters to develop a modern approach to the circus poster.
The ZPR wanted a new look for the circus poster to complement the circus’ efforts to upgrade its image. Not intended to advertise specific performances, they, rather, celebrated the essence of the circus through rich artistic expression with designs typically featuring clever metaphors, bold colours and humour. Heavy in symbolism, provocative and highly original the designs remain contemporary to this day and continue to gain appreciation.
This vintage Cyrk poster is sized 26 1/2 x 37 1/2 inches It is in rolled Near Mint/Mint condition. Just some light creases in places. Looks fabulous. Will be sent rolled (unframed).
