No Binding. Condizione: Fine. 1st Edition. Date: 1973 / Size: 23 x 33 inches / Artist: Jan Sawka --- About the poster: Starting in the mid-1960s Wroclaw became a center for Poland's theatrical and artistic avant-garde. Teatr STU was one of the most significant experimental theater groups in the country, and legendary figures Tadeusz Kantor and Andrzej Wajda honed their directing skills there. For STU's production of Exodus, Sawka, a young art student, created this metaphorical image of an isolated figure as a burnt match. Several years later he moved to New York, where his practice developed to include set designs on budgets from one hundred to nearly four million dollars, for musicians such as the Grateful Dead and Steve Winwood. (Moma) About Polish Poster: Beginning in the 1950s and through the 1980s, the Polish School of Posters combined the aesthetics of painting with the succinctness and simple metaphor of the poster. It developed characteristics such as painterly gesture, linear quality, and vibrant colors, as well as a sense of individual personality, humor, and fantasy. It was in this way that the polish poster was able to make the distinction between designer and artist less apparent. Polish posters have come to stand apart from the advertising design conventions fostered in Europe during the 20th century. It was during the communist regime, a time when culture was closely monitored by the state, that Polish artists found liberation in poster art. Ironically, this foremost public art form became ground for individual expression. During that period, the cultural institutions, of theatre and cinema especially, flourished as they were funded by government agencies. Artists freshly out of the fine arts academy flocked towards poster production as the demand for this art was rapidly growing. The result became some of the most unique and expressive posters the world has ever seen - and artworks in themselves. The poster is in good condition. Ready to frame !

No Binding. Condizione: Very Good. Original lithographed poster by Jan Sawka. 55 x 40,5 cm, in very good condition. Jan Sawka (December 10, 1946 August 9, 2012) was a Polish-born American artist and architect. Sawka completed two master's degrees: in painting and print-making from the Wrocław Fine Arts Academy and in Architectural Engineering from the Institute of Technology in Wrocław. By his late 20s, Sawka was a star of the famed Polish Poster School and a leading artist of the counter-culture. During the late 1960s and early 1970s, he became known in Poland for the posters and stage sets that he designed for avant-garde theater groups. He largely was able to avoid trouble with censors until his work begin to be noticed by foreign art critics, who commented on the hidden anti-authoritarian elements in his art.[1] His oppositionist activities led to his exile from Poland in 1976.[2] When he immigrated to New York in 1977, he had no money and he was unheard of in the United States.[3] Sawka's art was widely praised by the dissidents against Communist Poland.[1] In 1981, when martial law was imposed in Poland, the AFL-CIO sponsored a bipartisan fundraiser that sold Sawka's Solidarity poster in the millions to provide immediate support to the besieged Solidarity movement.[citation needed] New York City After 1977, he resided in New York, becoming part of the American cultural mainstream. Early in his time in the United States, Sawka created editorial drawings for the New York Times, while developing a multi-faceted career that encompassed printmaking, painting, sculpture, and theater design. Numerous galleries have exhibited his paintings and prints, and he designed for such theaters as the Harold Clurman, Jean Cocteau Repertory and Samuel Beckett Theater.[2] His awards have included the 1975 Oscar de la Peinture in Cagnes-sur-Mer, France for painting and the Gold Medal at the 1978 Warsaw Poster Biennial. In 1985, Sawka opened a series of one-man art exhibitions in New York City. The size and scope were unusual for an artist, and the success he had achieved in the eight years since his arrival from Poland was also unusual. In 1989, Sawka designed a 10-story tall set for The Grateful Dead's 25th Anniversary tour. He continued to work with the band for the remainder of his life, including "The Voyage", a collaboration with drummer Mickey Hart. In 1993, he created his first full multi-media spectacle, "The Eyes" in Japan. This was the beginning of his collaboration with Japanese studios and corporations, which includes the creation of high-tech interactive sculptures and monumental installations, as well as designs for full-scale monumental architecture. Sawka designed "The Tower of Light Cultural Complex" for Abu Dhabi, U.A.E., presented to the Royal Family in 1996. A pilot version of "The Voyage", a full-length multimedia spectacle, won the Gold Medal in Multi-Media at the 2003 Florence Contemporary Art Biennial. He is represented ACA Galleries in New York's Chelsea arts district. On August 9, 2012, Sawka died of a heart attack in his home in High Falls, New York. He was 65. At the time of his death, Sawka's works were in over 60 museums around the world and he has had over 70 solo shows at international museums and galleries. He was focused on completing the feature-length, final version of "Voyage" when he died. Sawka was married to his wife Hanka Sawka, with who he had a daughter and two grandchildren. Those who worked with him described him as full of energy and imagination, and that his personality inspired others to produce art. As an artist, Sawka insisted on controlling his artistic vision and refused to work with art dealers who wanted him to work in a particular style.[3] His work was unusually diverse and didn't neatly fit within any genres or trends. Sawka himself had no idea what his style should be called.[1] His work has been described as an alternative to Neo-Expressionists such as Julian Schnabel.
