Cappiello: The Posters of Leonetto Cappiello
by Jack Rennert Leonetto Cappiello is the Father of the Modern Poster. The largest and most authoritative collection of Cappiello’s work ever presented: 534 poster illustrations in full-color, many never before seen. Detailed appraisals and annotations accompany each poster, as well as biographical information and an insight into Cappiello's graphic method. An additional 50 color illustrations that show the many other facets of Cappiello’s talents–from book and magazine illustrations, to paintings, maquettes, postcards and, most of all, his superb early caricatures. Today, more homes are decorated with Cappiello's posters than those of any other single poster artist in the world. This book goes a long way toward showing why. 320 pages. Hardcover; text in English. Published in 2004. Hardcover. 320 pages. 13 x 10 in. $80. |

Rauschenberg Posters by Marc Gundel One of the pioneers and leading exponents of Pop Art, Robert Rauschenberg has experimented with and often blurred the boundaries between a variety of media, such as painting, object art, photography, and print. His mature poster work from the 1970's onwards displays a dynamic technique of composition, often addressing the subject in a surprising, oblique manner. Rauschenberg employs a collage principle that lends and unusual irony to everyday images and photographs. Published in 2001. Paperback. 96 pages. 12 x 9.75 in. $17.50.
