This striking original exhibition poster from 1990 features “Verre et Journal” (Glass and Newspaper) by Juan Gris (1887-1927), a master of Synthetic Cubism. Celebrated for his intellectual approach and precise, crystalline compositions, Gris expanded upon the innovations of Picasso and Braque with his distinctive vibrant palette and structured forms.
The poster reproduces his cubist still life with overlapping planes of wood textures, fragmented typography reading “Le Journal”, and simplified colour blocks in rose, teal, ochre, and deep black. It evokes the analytical yet poetic vision that defined Gris’ work, where everyday objects are reassembled into harmonious abstract designs.
Printed in 1990 for a retrospective exhibition, this poster preserves the enduring legacy of Juan Gris as one of the essential figures of early 20th-century modernism. It is ideal for collectors of Cubist and avant-garde art ephemera, offering both historical context and bold visual impact for contemporary interiors.
