Rilegato. Condition: quasi ottimo. Dust Jacket Condition: quasi ottimo. prima edizione. The cover picture by Holger Mathies a brightly coloured armchair sitting complacently in a brown field-symbolizes one essence of poster art: the injection of light and colour into an often dull daily round. Of course posters are primarily intended to sell products or to draw attention to exhibitions or performances, but behind this primary function a second raison d'être is concealed; the artistic dimension gives the poster a second life beyond its immediate purpose. And the artistic value of the poster is nowadays recognized. "How else, asks Jacques Richez in his preface, "should we explain the multiplication of poster museums, the proliferation of exhibitions, whether periodic or not, and the fascination shown by collectors?" The contemporary poster is making wider use of collages, of integrated drawings and photographs. It displays subtlety, surrealism and waggishness as well as spontaneity and occasional wild gestures. Very many posters are triggered by social problems, with peace as a central theme. This book presents the most outstanding poster achievements from 33 countries on 204 pages (110 of them in colour). Once more, Polish poster art is very well represented. Das Umschlagbild von Holger Matthies - ein bunt bemalter Sessel, breitbeinigauf braunem Acker stehend - versinnbildlicht ein wesentliches Element der Plakatkunst: das Plakat versucht Licht und Farbe hineinzutragen in den bisweilen düsteren Alltag. Gewiss dienen alle Plakate in erster Linie dazu, bestimmte Produkte anzubieten, auf Veranstaltungen oder Ausstellungen aufmerksam zu machen, doch kommt zu dieser Primärfunktion des Plakats eine weitere hinzu: das künstlerische Moment verleiht dem Plakat ein zweites Leben über seine ursprüngliche Bestimmung hinaus. Der graphisch-künstlerische Wert wird wiederentdeckt. «Wie sollte man denn anders» - fragt Jacques Richez in seinem Vorwort - «die Gründung zahlreicher Plakatmuseen, die vielfachen regelmässigen und Sonderausstellungen von Plakaten und die Begeisterung der Plakatsammler erklären?» Die zeitgenössische Plakatkunst verwendet vermehrt Collagen, integrierte Zeichnungen und Photographien. Es finden sich raffinierte, surrealistische und skurrile Akzente neben spontanen und wilden Ausdrucksformen. Zahlreiche Plakate kreisen um aktuelle gesellschaftspolitische Probleme, vor allem um das Thema Frieden. Auf 204 Seiten (davon 110 in Farbe) zeigt dieser Band die hervorragendsten Leistungen auf dem Gebiet der Plakatkunst aus 33 Ländern, dieses Jahr auch wieder zahlreiche Beispiele polnischer Künstler.
