Art of the Modern Movie Poster
December 3, 2008 – January 4, 2009

Book Signing and Reception: Thursday, December 11, 2008 at 7:30pm

In the Frieda and Roy Furman Gallery ~ adjacent to the Walter Reade Theater lobby. Open daily 1:30 to 6pm.

Take a lavish visual journey through the past 60 years which has been a prolific and exciting period for poster design. Drawn from New York’s Posteritati Gallery—one of the world’s largest collections of movie posters—and collected in Chronicle Books’s newly published volume, the 1,500 pieces of artwork presented here showcase the unique graphic brilliance of dozens of countries. Never before has a collection of this scale been gathered in one book.
