1983 Original French Poster, Festival International du Film Cannes Vintage Movie
Date: 1983 Size: 12 x 16 inches Artist: Jean-Michel Folon. When Folon died in 2005, the Guardian wrote: “Born in Uccle, near Brussels, the son of a paper wholesaler, Folon initially studied architecture, but by 1955 he had abandoned a country he regarded as a “mental prison and headed for Paris. He ended up living in a gardener’s pavilion in Bougival, on the outskirts of the capital, where he spent five years as a draughtsman. His designs often included a conventionally dressed Everyman figure, with a stereotypical brimmed hat and arrows instead of eyes, marooned in an empty landscape or penned in by slablike skyscrapers. As Folon put it, we live surrounded by boxes. In 1967 he even represented the Statue of Liberty with prison bars around her mouth. Poster is in very good overall condition with some minor ruffling at the edges (please see photos). All of our posters, prints and pochoirs are authentic, vintage items.
