Many of the leading 20th century artists enjoyed designing their own exhibition posters, often in the form of original lithographs printed by some of the great Parisian print ateliers such as Mourlot in Paris, Poligrafa in Barcelona and Erker Presse in St Gallen

While the poster, by nature, is ephemeral and mint copies are rare, they remain a relatively inexpensive way to buy original prints by artists like Picasso, Matisse and Miró are hugely flexible to display, working in harmony with a broad range of other artworks, styles, and interior settings.

Most posters of this kind were produced in the 1950s, ‘60s, and ‘70s.
