Hidden Gallery, Unit 6-8 The Clifton Arcade, Boyce's Avenue, BS8 4AA
This summer, Hidden is delighted to exhibit an extraordinary new collection of original posters by the biggest names in modern and contemporary art, such as Picasso, Warhol, Hockney, Paolozzi and more. The exhibition features a wide range of rare posters, with a special focus on hand-signed pieces.
These striking works, created to promote exhibitions and prominent cultural events, blend fine art with graphic design and pop culture. More than just advertising, these posters are significant artworks in their own right and occupy an important position within art history. For many artists, designing a poster was the gateway to a lifelong passion for printmaking.
Original posters were designed to be temporary, which makes surviving examples in excellent condition incredibly rare. Hidden new exhibition offers a unique chance to encounter these vivid relics from a pre-digital era. They serve as windows into pivotal moments in art history, politics, and culture, capturing artists at their cultural zenith. Highlights include a gorgeous poster by Emin, created for her first major solo exhibition at Turner Contemporary, and a dazzling poster by Chagall, produced in 1953 during his legendary time in Vence.
