Thank you! Very interesting collection. Remark on "black" is also interesting, we have a very long attached particular importance to black. Mastery engraving valued. Is not the case, one dealer told me "schedule is difficult, something has changed ... You may be interested to know that will soon be a directory or something like review the history of these "new poster artist of Leningrad", then they and the industry attempted to chart something new to move ... Here, by the way, it is appropriate to say with regret that when "all gone", new relationships and got a computer, almost all of these artists were out of work. Stopped receiving orders, it was difficult to buy new equipment and to master it and the entire field of industrial graphics in the hands of those who sat at the computer, all the same with any art education ... SC in this respect have not done anything, but it seems that he could ...

This is a consequence of reduction of culture in general, and collecting, and visual culture, etc., in particular. Collecting and understanding of graphics, no doubt, with a truly educated and therefore capable of high differentiation of people. This is due to the peculiarities of perception, razvityx in the formation of psychophysiological predispositions of the individual. Simply put, not every person understands the schedule requires some effort, dictated by the intrinsic motivation and predisposition, supported from outside.
      Speaking even shorter, the graphics - it is an elitist art. Images, meanings and impressions are taken through the line and the point that for some poses certain difficulties. Graphics - is the foundation skill of the artist. To me an artist who does not work in graphics technology, suspiciously one-sided or not implemented completely.

Interesting. In the late 80's - early 90's overseas exhibition catalogs published in Leningrad poster, but I am afraid that the selection of posters for publication carried an ideological nature and this could affect the objectivity in determining the best. And those it poster artist, of which you speak? Information is not enough. If you know more about them and have a desire to tell, tell us about them in my theme or topic "Russian Posters" http://forum.artinvestment.ru/showth...965&page=7
or in a separate.

Ayo Gilles (Gilles Aillaud) 1928-2005

Gilles Ayo was born in Paris in 1928, where he also received art education. The artist's works difficult to determine within a style in art. His work belongs to the period-sided revival of figuration in the 60 years of the last century, the heyday of pop art and hyper-realism. Gilles Ayo worked in collaboration with the artists movement "narrative figuration" the Spaniard Eduardo Arroyo and Antonio Italian Rekalkati. He is equally well served as a draftsman, painter, theater artist, wrote poetry, full of bright lyricism. Ayo - virtuoso portraitist, but true, native of his poems, favorite characters - quadrupeds, birds, waterfowl inhabitants of sea and land. Their Ayo embodied with certain skills, followed by long years of live-work. Nobody draws so many avidly and persistently as animal artist, emphasized in the polemic fervor VA Vatagin in the notes about his favorite cause.
"Country Ayo" is divided into two unequal parts. First, a minority - is warmed by the sun expanse of Greek landscapes, all of whom once lived and worked as an artist. In another part of the "country Ayo" The sun gives way to a deathly electric lighting, warm stones covered with moss - the gray concrete, freedom - nilly. It is sad, even tragic "Zoos" artist, amounting to a huge series, work on which was stretched for many years.
Oppressive sense of "captivity of nature" is embodied in the lattices, iron fences, barbed thorns that restrict the space in a government indifference warning placards: "Please do not throw anything into the water!", "Do not feed the animals!". Especially here seem pathetic imitation of the natural landscape - the stumps trunks, shabby and dirty concrete "rocks". The only living part is the water flashing silver which are perceived as flimsy memories about losing their freedom.
It is noteworthy that very often exotic animals - elephants, monkeys, crocodiles, hippos - which further reinforces the idea of their disconnection from the mother nature.
But this cycle Ayo is not a caricature of the real European zoos. Modern zoos, including the place of honor is famed Vincennes Zoo in Paris with his masterly landscapes, reconstructions of various parts of the globe - this is important research centers, ever-widening circle of human knowledge about nature.
Images Ayo - a philosophical synthesis, a warning of how sad fate awaits natural environment, if the technology world, a world created by human hands, will not find it a common language.
... So live side by side in the works Ayo images freestyle nature of the Mediterranean and the images of "nature in captivity", the characters of ruthless attack world technology on the natural environment.

That time was special. Certainly the selection took place in accordance with the political orientation of the organizers. (This is especially true for the poster.) But the level was supposed to be high. The school that was still the same! Why, though, would take those posters that you put up, very good! And relevance is still, unfortunately.
I just do not understand the second poster: "I am happy that I - Leningradite ..." Alexander Medvedev. What we can not understand? Maybe someone will explain it. Probably some sort of a specific Piterskaya topic.
