This 1967 original exhibition poster, designed by Atelier Joubert, was created for the exhibition “Arts Primitifs dans les Ateliers d’Artistes” at the Musée de l’Homme, located in the Palais de Chaillot, Paris. The exhibition explored the influence of African, Oceanic, and Indigenous art on modern European artists, particularly in the 20th century avant-garde movements.
The event highlighted how non-Western artistic traditions shaped the works of renowned artists such as Picasso, Matisse, Derain, and Modigliani, who drew inspiration from the forms, abstraction, and symbolism found in these traditions. By placing these pieces in dialogue with contemporary artistic movements, the exhibition underscored their role in reshaping modern art.
Atelier Joubert, a noted design studio, created this poster to promote the exhibition. It remains a significant historical artifact, reflecting a key moment in the recognition of non-Western art’s impact on global artistic evolution.
This rare original 1967 exhibition poster is a valuable collectible for enthusiasts of modern art, ethnographic influences, and historical exhibitions that examined cultural exchange in artistic creation.
