1969 Pablo Picasso Exhibition Poster, Galerie Madoura Vallauris – Gravures Récentes
A vintage exhibition poster produced for the 1969 exhibition Gravures Récentes (Recent Engravings) by Pablo Picasso at Galerie Madoura in Vallauris, France. The poster features one of Picasso’s expressive figurative compositions at the top, rendered in his distinctive late graphic style characterized by energetic linework and densely textured cross-hatching.
Below the image, the poster presents bold typographic elements announcing the exhibition held from 20 August to 27 September 1969 at Galerie Madoura—an important cultural site closely associated with Picasso’s ceramic and printmaking production during his years in Vallauris in the South of France.
Printed by Imprimerie Arnera, Vallauris, the poster captures the spirit of late-period Picasso exhibitions in the region where the artist worked extensively after World War II. Original exhibition posters from Vallauris are increasingly sought after both for their historical connection to Picasso’s studio years in the region and for their strong graphic presence.
The piece is presented in a simple aluminum frame that complements the poster’s clean modernist typography and allows the graphic composition to remain the focal point.
