Graphis 88 — Exhibition Posters by Artists
This section from Graphis 88 documents exhibition posters created by painters working in Paris—Chagall, Léger, and others.
The work is image-led, with minimal typography and no separation between fine art and applied communication. Each piece carries the artist’s hand directly into a functional context.
In school, art and design were treated as separate disciplines—one self-directed, one applied. This work doesn’t follow that distinction.
The artist defines the visual language and solves the problem at the same time.
That overlap is less common now.
