Harcourt House Gallery, "Art of the Street: The Masters of Polish School of Poster Art," 2018
Curated by Jacek Malec and presented in partnership with the Polish Culture Society of Edmonton and the Canadian-Polish Association of Calgary as a key international exhibition during the Design Week at Harcourt House and 2018 Alberta Culture Days, this exhibition showcases internationally renowned contemporary poster designers from Poland that breached the boundaries of conventional poster design. Undermining tradition and challenging their proclamatory purpose, Polish posters inspired a new approach to the genre, while elevating poster design to an artform equal in importance to conventional forms of fine art.
The official opening: Thursday, September 20, 2018 from 6:30 pm to 10:00 pm. Reception + Cash Bar. Free Admission. Address: Enterprise Square Gallery, 10230 Jasper Avenue NW; Edmonton.
