Polish Film Posters Evoke Wild West


A series of Polish communist-era film posters surprisingly evokes the American Wild West.  The  exhibit at the prestigious Denver  Art Museum  brings together a collection of 1960-1980's movie posters which illustrate surprisingly free handed and engaging art.  These are among the more interesting pieces in the collection.

                            Cat Ballou a 1965 Western starring Jane Fonda and Lee Marvin.

                                              John Wayne's immortal El Dorado from 1966

                                                   Oklahoma! The movie musical 1955


The Polish poster exhibit is on loan from the Autry National Center of the American West in Los Angeles.
