Roman Cieślewicz: Zawrót Głowy


Zawrót Głowy (Vertigo Poster), 83 x 59 cm, Poland
Roman Cieślewicz (Poland 1930–France 1996)

To me a picture could never be separated from the content. I always go for the maximum picture and the maximum information. You need to stimulate imagination to the maximum. Roman Cieślewicz

Cieslewicz earned huge international recognition, exhibiting his works throughout the world. He was one of the key founders of the Polish poster school which promoted simplicity and clarity of artistic statement, use of the synthetic sign and poetic metaphor, and abundance of means of expression. His artistic interests included posters, press and publishing prints, typography, photography, photomontage and exhibiting.
