PostEra at App Store analyse

The poster. A large sheet of paper placed in the public sphere; easily produced, quickly assembled. On the one hand – praised, on the other – contested; yet, continuously recurrent in the conversations about design in Poland. Naive, intuitive style of Polish posters from 50-70s overgrew its fame and became a myth, a fairy tale of famous Polish Poster School was distributed among Art Universities. Students in 90s and 2000 was still trying to match the requirements imposed by the myth-believers but after leaving University they were becoming masters in the art that nobody needs due to socio-political changes and early capitalism. Exhibition distributes subtle, ironic and subversive contents with auto-thematic posters employing a contemporary graphic designer’s toolkit. Polish Poster Schools tradition, reuse it or forget it?
Version 01 of the app is made for the inauguration of Post«Era project during Jerusalem Design Week.
