Polish Graphic Design
Warsaw theatre poster, designed 1966 by Jan Lenica, Polish graphic designer, Around 1955 until the 1970's a new graphic direction came from, of all places, Communist Poland, as if a voice of defience to all other styles, be it Heroic Realism, New Graphic Design, or whatever direction graphic design was going world wide. Polish designers were doing their own thing in their own way.
But style it was. And as a style, eventually once the novelty died out, so did this direction. It did not go much beyond those years but in its own way, added to the graphic scene of the times. It was the very antithesis of all New Graphic Design principles.
