Bright yellow, red and blue contrast with black outlines and areas of fine hatching.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe image corresponds to Cueco’s 1969 painting La Grève, held by the Musée d’Art moderne de Paris. A distinctive example of politically engaged French art, combining a social subject with bold, colourful design.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe series was printed at Fernand Mourlot’s workshop in Paris.\u003cbr\u003e\nSigned by Cueco in the lower-right area, with the artist’s name and title also incorporated into the printed design.\u003cbr\u003e\nDimensions: 19.5 in x 25.5 in (50 cm x 65 cm)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHenri Cueco (1929–2017) was a French painter, printmaker and writer whose work often explored ordinary people, politics and society. Largely self-taught, he became an important figure in the return to figurative painting during the 1960s. He helped establish the politically engaged Coopérative des Malassis in 1969 and later taught at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause of the age of these posters, there are areas of wear and tear, particularly on the edges. I have done my best to take photos where they are torn or stained. The good news is that when framed, the tears press up well against glass, and edges can be hidden by mats. Any wear picked up from years are part of the vintage charm. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWhen framed these colourful and detailed posters, with vibrant colours can become a centre piece for any room, to remind us of a simpler time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese posters are sent as unframed.
