Description
Tomi Ungerer (1931-2019) - Giving wings to human rights, Amnesty International. Printed by Digit'offset. 60x40cm. Original poster, offset printing. Not canvas-backed. Condition A. Perfect condition. Produced for Amnesty International, this poster is part of Tomi Ungerer's committed body of work, whose graphic work goes far beyond children's illustration and extends to political satire and humanitarian causes. A major figure in twentieth-century drawing, Ungerer developed a direct, powerful and immediately readable language, often based on simple symbols and strong visual metaphors. His commitment to human rights and to opposing all forms of oppression was an important part of his work from 1960-1970, in association with international organisations such as Amnesty International. This poster belongs to the tradition of contemporary activist visuals, in which the image becomes a universal tool for raising awareness. The Musée Ungerer is located in Strasbourg, his birthplace.
