Summary:
Soy Cuba presents a selection of the finest film posters produced in Cuba from the 1950s until the early 1970s. Famous around the world for their brash originality and bright, clear graphic sensibility, Cuban cinema posters of the Revolutionary era are held in as high esteem as the moodier and more abstract Polish film posters of the same era. Susan Sontag devoted a good part of her noted 1970 essay, “Posters: Advertisement, Art, Political Artifact, Commodity” to the particularly satisfying paradox they present. Collected by designer Carole Goodman in collaboration with the ICAC and other Cuban specialists, this substantial compendium is a visual and intellectual treat.

Parce qu'il est inséparable de l'émergence de ces formes inédites de la création qui vont constituer l'art dit "contemporain", le livre d'artiste est une excellente introduction à la compréhension de ses principaux enjeux comme à la diversité de ses manifestations. Ce livre constitue la synthèse la plus large à ce jour de la production internationale. Depuis sa première édition en 1997, il s'est imposé en France et à l'étranger comme l'étude de référence sur le sujet. Pour cette nouvelle édition, le texte, mis à jour et augmenté, s'est enrichi de nombreuses reproductions. Plus de sept cents livres y sont analysés, par près de quatre cents artistes dont les pionniers Ben, Robert Barry, Christian Boltanski, Marcel Broodthaers, Herman de Vries, Robert Filliou, Ian Hamilton Finlay, Allan Kaprow, Sol LeWitt, Richard Long, Maurizio Nannucci, Dieter Roth, Edward Ruscha, Daniel Spoerri, Wolf Vostell, Lawrence Weiner.

Summary:
The modern poster dates back to around 1870, when color lithography had been sufficiently perfected to permit mass production. Artists such as Toulouse-Lautrec and Jules Chéret were quick to perceive and embrace the possibilities of the poster as a form, as means of disseminating their work and as a source of income. New movements in late nineteenth-century art, such as Art Nouveau and Symbolism, also adapted their respective styles to commercial demands, and their graphic power was such that major poster surveys were held as early as 1884. Later on, in the early days of the Soviet avant-garde, artists like Rodchenko and Klutsis were also to apply their graphic know-how to the poster form, in the service of a new communist Russia and its booming industries. This boxed volume reproduces 175 posters from the last decades of the nineteenth century to the early twentieth century, loose-leaf and in full color. The works have been gathered by expert Carlos Pérez from European museums and renowned international private collections. An accompanying paperback book, housed within the box, provides an historical overview. Among the 90-plus artists included here are Chéret, Ramón Casas, Toulouse-Lautrec, Pierre Bonnard, Alfons Mucha, Henri Matisse, Cassandre, Paul Colin, Jean Carlu, Giacomo Balla, Herbert Bayer, Otto Baumberger, John Heartfield, Vladimir Lebedev, Alexander Rodchenko, Man Ray, Kurt Schwitters, Oskar Schlemmer, Gustav Klutsis, Robert Béreny and Fortunato Depero.

Summary:
The Magic of Things explores a former advertising strategy of Swiss product posters in which banal, everyday objects—butter, a sewing machine, or shoes—are presented as desirable objects enticing us to buy. Free from any further contextualization, the objects acquire a sensual presence and magical aura. The product poster had its heyday in Switzerland in the 1940s with designers such as Niklaus Stoecklin, Peter Birkhauser, or Otto Baumberger. As consumer society developed, however, the exclusive focus on the product and the brand name was no longer enough—in advertising, the feelings associated with the object as it related to life grew increasingly important. Today it is in the cultural poster that the magical depiction of things is experiencing a kind of renaissance.
