About the Item

This original 1983 French movie poster was created for Faits Divers, the gripping documentary film by celebrated photojournalist and filmmaker Raymond Depardon. Premiering as an official selection at the Cannes Film Festival, the film offers an unflinching, cinéma vérité look inside a Paris police station, capturing the raw human drama of daily criminal cases—assaults, suicides, domestic disputes—through Depardon’s signature observational lens. The poster’s bold, grainy aesthetic perfectly mirrors the film’s gritty realism. A cropped, blurred photo—likely a still from the film—occupies the frame, emphasizing tension and immediacy. The typography slices diagonally across the composition in stark white, red, blue, green, and pink text, contrasting sharply with the darkened image. The title Faits Divers ("Miscellaneous News Items") appears in loud capital letters at the top, divided into pink and green to echo the tension between the mundane and the dramatic. Produced by Antenne 2 and Copyright Films and distributed by Pari Films, Faits Divers remains one of Depardon’s most influential works—straddling the line between investigative journalism and humanist cinema. This original poster not only promotes the film but also encapsulates the visual language of early 1980s French documentary design: raw, urgent, and minimalist. A powerful piece for collectors of film ephemera, contemporary French cinema, or documentary history. Cinema - Advertising Printed by Lalande Courbet in Wissous

1982 vintage poster by Razzia for the Paris Posters exhibition
By Razzia (Gérard Courbouleix–Dénériaz)
Located in PARIS, FR
This striking 1982 vintage poster, designed by Razzia, was created to promote the Paris Posters exhibition at the Musée de l’Affiche et de la Publicité during the summer (Été 82). Featuring a bold and graphic collage-style composition, the artwork embodies the dynamic energy of 1980s design. Razzia, a renowned French graphic artist, is celebrated for his iconic Art Deco-inspired poster designs with a modern twist. In this piece, he juxtaposes a stylized black-and-white Eiffel Tower, a monochrome portrait of a woman, and an accordion transformed into the Arc de Triomphe, all set against a dramatic black background with vivid color accents. The use of cutout-style imagery and neon-inspired typography reflects the postmodern aesthetic of the early 1980s, capturing the bold creativity of the era. The vibrant contrast of yellow, red, and blue highlights adds to the poster’s visual impact, making it a standout example of contemporary French graphic design. A rare and collectible piece, this original Razzia poster...
