Cyrk Two Dogs Balancing Ball 1975 Polish Circus Poster, Jack Neugebauer

About the Item

We adore this original Polish Circus/Cyrk poster of two dogs balancing a ball. Fabulous design by Jacek Neugebauer. The ‘Cyrk” circus poster in Poland appeared for the first time in 1962 when the ZPR (Zjednoczone Przedsiebiorstwa 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 first edition offset lithograph is sized 26 1/4 x 38 inches. Will be sent rolled (unframed).
