Additional Details: IIe Triennale Européenne de Sculpture Original Exhibition Poster, Grand Palais, Paris, 1981 This original exhibition poster was produced for the Second European Sculpture Triennial, held at the Grand Palais in Paris in December 1981. The exhibition brought together an international survey of sculptural practices, including the Fifth International Exhibition of Small Bronzes and a presentation dedicated to drawings and studies related to sculpture. The poster features a striking photographic image of an African ceremonial mask, whose elongated geometry and radiating fiber elements evoke both ritual presence and sculptural abstraction. By selecting this powerful image, the exhibition underscored the profound dialogue between traditional non-Western sculpture and modern European artistic practice — a relationship that shaped twentieth-century sculpture from early modernism onward. Designed with bold typographic clarity characteristic of French institutional graphics of the early 1980s, the poster exemplifies exhibition printing from the pre-digital poster era, when museum posters served as lasting cultural artifacts as well as promotional materials. Today, the poster stands as a compelling document of international sculpture discourse and Paris museum culture at the close of the twentieth century. Framing available upon request.
