About the Item
This striking 1972 original poster was created for an exhibition by the renowned Belgian artist Pol Bury at the CNAC (Centre National d'Art Contemporain), located at 11 rue Berryer, Paris 8e. Held from 14 November 1972 to 8 January 1973, the show marked an important moment in Bury's career as a pioneer of kinetic and conceptual art.
Dominated by a tall, surreal black-and-white image of a distorted architectural structure—a visual metaphor for tension, balance, and transformation—the composition is unmistakably Bury’s. It evokes both the mechanical and the organic, central themes in the artist's sculptural and graphic work. The bold typographic layout, with Bury’s name in vivid red and the venue details in green, offers a stark yet elegant contrast on the minimalist white background.
Pol Bury began his career as a painter influenced by Surrealism and later the CoBrA group, before becoming internationally celebrated for his kinetic sculptures and public installations. This poster reflects the conceptual precision and playful distortion that made his work so distinctive in the 20th-century avant-garde landscape.
Printed by Arte, Paris, this exhibition poster stands as a powerful piece of graphic design as well as a historical record of Bury’s evolving visual language. Today, it’s a coveted artifact for collectors of kinetic art and postwar European modernism alike.
