MŁODZIANOWSKI Adam (1917-1985) - II Warsaw Autumn. 1958. music poster promoting the Festival of Contemporary Music organized by the Union of Polish Composers on the initiative of composers Tadeusz Baird and Kazimierz Serocki. Offset, bdb. condition, small edge tear. Dimensions: 58x83 cm.

One of the goals of the poster's designers was to break away from the so-called "creative method," i.e., the assumptions of Socialist Realism. The composition is highly geometrized, almost abstract, divided into two parts. It probably refers in this way to the West-East opposition appropriately depicted on the poster as a juxtaposition of halves of a "colorless" and colored background, and emphasized by the motif of a pigeon (peace) stylized instrument on the eastern side. In doing so, the two "worlds" are separated by a music stand. In fact, this ideologization, which was obligatory at the time, is almost imperceptible, having been satisfactorily neutralized by visual means. This ability to evade censorship is regarded as one of the most important features of the Polish School of Posters.
