Original 1970s abstract art poster by renowned British artist Robert Medley, unframed.
This is an original 1970s abstract art poster created by the Royal Academician, a well-respected artist whose work is in the Tate Modern collection.
This is believed to have been produced for an exhibition at The Warehouse Gallery in London in 1973.
This is a poster, not a print, and as such is printed on relatively thin paper. It features a facsimile of the artist's signature in the bottom right corner, along with the date 5-7-73.
Originally there were six identical copies of this poster in a cardboard tube stored in a loft, where they had been kept for 50+ years. As a result, this is quite curly, in generally excellent condition with only minor creasing. There were also another two copies of a version of the same poster with text about the above-mentioned exhibition at the top and bottom. So potentially this is 1 of 6 copies of this version particular poster print.
