About the Item
Jack Yates (British, 1923–2012)
Poster Man, 1965
Oil on canvas
Signed and dated J. Yates, 1965 (upper right); further inscribed, dated and titled on the reverse
Canvas: 39 3/4 x 31 7/8 in. (101 x 81 cm.)
Painted in 1965, Poster Man captures the bold visual language of 1960s Britain. Against a striking red ground, a man is shown standing before a billboard-like image of a woman in a bikini, her mouth open in a scream. The juxtaposition of the silent figure and the confrontational poster creates a charged atmosphere, reflecting the era’s fascination with advertising, mass media, and shifting social attitudes.
The composition distils everyday urban experience into a tense, cinematic tableau. With its vivid palette and layered narrative, Poster Man exemplifies Yates’s ability to transform contemporary life into powerful modern imagery, bridging figuration with the sharp graphic sensibilities of the Pop era.
