Street Graphics Cuba
Street Graphics Cuba
By Barry Dawson
Amazon.com Product Description
Much of today's most exuberant, most creative, and most telling imagery can be found in the street. A public art gallery of visual icons, each city hosts permanent collections and temporary exhibits, each country reflects its own much-loved identity. Cuba has a unique place in the world's street galleries, where its colonial past and the revolution have created something vibrantly distinct. Che Guevara is a popular presence, but beyond the ideology the streets provide a venue to enjoy pre-Revolution enamel Coke signs, Crystal beer and Cohiba cigar billboards, the imagery of the Buena Vista Social Club, and a nostalgic look at the chromium trim and high tail fins of 1950s automobiles. This book captures it all in an evocative medley of impressions for visitors—and would-be visitors—to Cuba and an inspirational resource for designers everywhere. 214 color photographs.
