This striking and visually minimalist exhibition poster was produced for the 1986 group show Influenced by New York at the Natalie Knight Gallery. The composition features a bold, high-contrast photographic figure—cropped and abstracted—capturing a sense of movement, attitude, and urban edge emblematic of the New York art scene of the time. The exhibition brought together a significant roster of internationally recognized artists, including Christo, Jim Dine, Richard Estes, Alex Katz, Robert Longo, Brice Marden, Robert Rauschenberg, Tom Wesselmann, and Andy Warhol, highlighting the global influence of New York as a cultural and artistic epicenter during the 1980s. The stark black-and-white aesthetic, combined with strong negative space and graphic typography, reflects the visual language of the era—where photography, fashion, and contemporary art intersected seamlessly. A compelling and historically relevant poster that captures the energy and influence of 1980s contemporary art, appealing to collectors of exhibition ephemera and works connected to the New York School and its global reach. Framing available upon request.
