The core of the presentation are posters from the 1960’s, which was the prime time for this unique visual / applied arts creation in Czechoslovakia. Among the top pieces that will be on display are the posters by Jiri Slitr for the film Audition and collage posters by Vladimir Bidlo for the comedy The Firemen’s Ball.

The selection will also contain several rare works by Polish, Hungarian and East German artists. The famous poster designed by Peter Sis for the US distribution of Amadeus will be the highlight of the show.
