Original vintage The Rolling Stones poster "Sympathy for the Devil"

About the Item

Original Danish movie poster for "Sympathy for the Devil" - in danish "sympati for Satan", 1968. The poster is made by Kirkeby Rosengreen (right bottom corner) and is marked "rented out" by Sven Hansen (left bottom corner). The condition of the poster is great. "Sympathy for the Devil" is a beguiling song by The Rolling Stones that interlaces art, history, and the enigmatic persona of the devil himself. The song's magnetic allure led filmmaker Jean-Luc Godard to craft a unique film titled "Sympathy for the Devil" (also known as "One Plus One") in 1968, chronicling the Stones' creative process during the recording of the titular track. Godard's movie presents an innovative blend of music, politics, and philosophy. It captures the charged atmosphere of the late 1960s, capturing not only the Stones' sonic experimentation but also intertwining it with scenes reflecting the socio-political upheavals of the era. The film's juxtaposition of the creative act with scenes of revolutionary protest symbolizes the tension between countercultural expressions and mainstream society. "Sympathy for the Devil" the movie is an avant-garde endeavor that mirrors the complexity of the song itself. It portrays the Stones as artists attuned to the pulse of their time, using their music as a canvas to comment on the world around them. Through Godard's lens, the film transforms a single song into a multi-layered exploration of cultural evolution and artistic introspection, reflecting the spirit of the 1960s with all its chaos, creativity, and contradictions.
