Graphic Poster Styles
Poster prints have been popular mediums for a myriad of graphic styles and designs. The decades have become witnesses and articulators of these designs, as whatever style was usually reflective of the decorative trend of that particular era or decade. Some designs have also been dictated by that era’s political, religious, economic and social climate. In any case, poster prints can be a graphic and vivid exhibit of historical events, aesthetic styles and cultural norms.
For poster fans, vintage poster prints are always a treat. Some avail of cheap poster prints by viewing and printing them through online printers who offer poster printing cheap. Whether the poster design is vintage or modern, here’s a look at some graphic poster styles that have developed across the decades.
• Art Nouveau -The Art Nouveau period, which originally began in the late 19th century, was the leading international style for all mediums of art including printing, architecture, painting; consumer items, jewelry, furniture, sculpture and interior design. It was known by different terms throughout Europe including Jugendstil in Germany and Stile Liberty in Italy. Art Nouveau’s philosophy was the rejection and mass industrialization of art, style and design. It pushed for more creative, unique art work and thus developed an aesthetic style that featured organic, sinuous lines; patterns and colors. Art Nouveau was said to be widely adapted to the Belle Epoque or Poster Craze of 1890. Prominent poster prints in this style include; Biscuits Lefevre-Utile, 1897 by Alphonse Mucha, Incandescenza a Gas, 1895 by Giovanni Mataloni and Chat Noir/Ce Soir, 1896 by Theophile Steinlen.
• Art Deco-The Art Deco style replaced Art Nouveau and became the new international style after World War I. In complete contrast to the Art Nouveau style of organic lines and nature inspired forms, art deco patterns features streamlined, geometric shapes to symbolize the development of modern technology. Design inspiration was said to have been from other active art movements at that time including cubism, futurism and constructivism. Examples of posters in this style include Normandie, 1938 by A.M. Cassandra, and Lisa Duncan, 1927 by Paul Colin.
• 1950’s Style-After the wars, the culture in America focused on moving on and rebuilding normal lives. AS a result, art and media images promoted the consumption and production of goods such as food, fashion, household and electronics. Its design was characterized by simple, child-like graphics; eye-catching combination of colors and visual puns which was ideal for product marketing. Some notable posters from this era include Design 8/63, 1963 by Paul Rand and Pantene (white), 1945 by Herbert Leupin.
