Original vintage poster (from the first release of this film in Soviet Union – 15 May 1950) for the East German and Austrian. Movie – “Kinder der Donau” (released for English-speaking countries as Marika) – film directed by Georg Jacoby. It was one of a cycle of popular musicals made by Jacoby and Rökk. The film was shot using Agfacolor at the Soviet-controlled Rosenhügel Studios in Vienna. Location filming took place around Linz on the River Danube. The film’s sets were designed by the art director Julius von Borsody. Please Note: The world??????? (Colour) is crossed out. On the waves of the blue Danube river, a tug barge with the cheerful name “Marika” is anchored; on it lives a blonde girl Marika (Marika Rökk), a waitress and singer from the local tavern “Noah’s Ark”. One evening, after boarding her houseboat, she finds a strange man in her bed. The uninvited guest, Georg, turns out to be a writer who wants to settle in these wonderful places. The success of this project is beginning to bear fruit, but one night during a thunderstorm, all the props of the theater burn out from a lightning strike. Then Georg writes an article in a newspaper urging the public to contribute to the restoration of the theater. Marika Rökk, Fred Liewehr, Harry Fuß, Fritz Muliar, Annie Rosar and Joseph Egger.

Original title on the poster. I’m a paragraph. Mention details and specifications that you believe are relevant to your buyers. CHANTSEV ALEXANDER VASILIEVCIH (1949 – 2002). Alexander Chantsev was born in 1949 in the city of Torun, Poland. In 1973 he graduated from the Moscow Higher School of Industrial Art (formerly the Stroganov School) with a degree in Artistic Ceramics. The second prize of the International Olympic Poster Competition in 1980 gave impetus to the work in the poster genre. Several years of fruitful work in the circus poster followed, and during this period the individual style and technique of Alexander Chantsev gradually developed. In 1989 he was admitted to the Union of Artists. The film posters brought the artist international fame. Solo exhibitions of film posters by Alexander Chantsev took place in Rome in 1991 (together with Yuri Boxer) as part of the exhibition of Soviet film posters, which was held in the largest exhibition hall of the city – Palazzo delle Esposizioni. In 2001, an exhibition of movie posters by Chantsev, Boxer and Maistrovsky was held in the city of Tavira (Portugal). Alexander Chantsev took part in the largest exhibitions of Soviet and Russian posters, regularly participated in international biennials in Warsaw, Lahti, Colorado, Brno, took part in a poster exhibition in the Louvre (1989), the International Poster Festival in Chaumont, France (1991), in the exhibitions ” Russian social poster “in the USA (1991-92), Perestroika. Glasnost in Japan (1991-92), was awarded with diplomas of various competitions, a diploma of the finalist of the European competition of advertising EPICA in Paris (1992). Exhibitions of posters, in which Alexander Chantsev participated, have traveled almost all over the world, the originals and prints have ended up in the most famous galleries and in private collections in the USA, France, Switzerland, Belgium, and the Czech Republic. However, the rise of poster art, which took place thanks to perestroika and the resulting freedom, gradually ended, and interest in the poster was largely lost. New times have come when the emerging market relations have made completely different demands on artists. I had to master new genres – advertising booklets, annual reports, logos, corporate styles – and face a different customer. For the last seven years of his life, Alexander Chantsev was engaged in the design of exhibition stands, working as the art director of the Expoline company. It was a new business, and gradually the festive atmosphere of the exhibitions captured Alexander Chantsev entirely. Possessing tremendous efficiency and real professionalism, he managed to create many interesting exhibition stands for such companies as Lucent Technologies, Avaya, Alcatel, A&T Trade, KRKA, Shreya, Orimi Trade, Sunway, Mobile TeleSystems. Nevertheless, in Russia and the world, Alexander Chantsev is known primarily as a brilliant poster artist who belonged to a remarkable generation of artists. And the soft, good-natured humor of his circus posters, the philosophical metaphors of the movie posters, the sharp, satirical images of political posters will forever remain in our memory.
