Poster for Zurich
Filmpodium "Shakespeare's Cinema" was the title of a cycle of films based on the subject of: "Hamlet","Othello" and "The Tempest". That program took place in the Zurich Film podium, which is a non profit cinema and runs by the Zurich Department of Culture. In this poster I tried to melt together theater and cinema by melting together temporary type and a historical Picture to one Image. Melting point is the relief. The relief of a very common display system (white plastic letters you can push in a grooved black rubber mat) and the relief of a Russian icon from Fereferov Alexei Makarovich,1796. The poster is printed by Albin Uldry, silkscreen, 2 colors - silver and black, 90,5 x 128cm.
