French poster master Paul Colin believed that
successful posters had an immediate impact on a large number of
people. His own posters certainly did. The art in 100 Posters
of Paul Colin represents some of his finest works, and consists
of both full-color and black-and-white images.
This collection includes three categories of
posters. The first type of artwork produced by Colin related to
the performing arts, and focused on topics such as theater, dance,
music, and film. His second type of poster included both those created
to promote worthy causes and those designed to expose the inhumanity
of man. Thirdly, Colin created outstanding promotional posters to
advertise products and services. For each poster, author Jack Rennert
includes extensive and insightful notes that illuminate both the
artwork and the time in which it was created. He also includes information
on the printer when it is available.
Jack
Rennert has been dealing in posters for over forty years.
During this time, he has written a dozen monographs, arranged museum
tours, given lectures, and done television guest spots on the topic
of poster art. Rennert also established two successful companies:
Posters Please, Inc. and Poster Auctions International. At Poster
Auctions International, the world's first company to specialize
exclusively in poster auctions, he became the world's first specialized
poster auctioneer. Mr. Rennert is also the author of over twenty
books on both vintage and modern posters.
