Movie Posters of the Week: The Posters of Dziga Vertov


Poster for Dziga Vertov’s The Man with the Movie Camera by Vladimir and Georgii Stenberg.
"Some of the first movie posters that I ever took seriously, or seriously loved, were Soviet posters of the 1920s. Instantly arresting, intensely colorful and irresistibly dynamic, as well as being rendered more appealingly abstract because of their Cyrillic typography, the best of these posters, like those of the Stenberg Brothers and Alexander Rodchenko, are, it almost goes without saying, among the greatest works of 20th century graphic design."
