NextNOW Fest: Indelible Ephemera: Posters and Fliers from Special Collections in Performing Arts
An audience’s initial interaction with a concert, a new play or a choreographer’s new dance piece does not always occur when performers first take the stage. Promotional posters and fliers—affixed to bare walls, stapled to telephone poles or handed out on the street—are often the first point of contact between an artistic work and audience members. In an 8 ½”x11” leaflet or a 27”x40” poster, graphic designers distill the core of a new work in letterform and illustration.
