Poster Monday: Rape is Never the Victim’s Fault

For this Poster Monday spot we featuring the poster “Rape is Never the Victim’s Fault” designed by Ágnes Rozmann a graphic designer living and working in born in Budapest (Hungary). She teach graphic design at the Hungarian University of Fine Arts, where obtained her Master’s Degree in Graphics and Visual Art Education and a Doctoral Degree in Fine Arts.

Ágnes tell us “My poster Rape is Never the Victim’s Fault was made for the call of the 16th International Poster Biennial in Mexico. When the theme of a poster is violence, the most usual concept is to shock the viewer by visualising aggressivity in some way. As I’ve seen so far, the daily news we all watch has made most of us indifferent to the visuals of misery, pain, and excruciation. That’s why I have chosen to depict the beauty and vulnerability of the female body. I think it is a more effective way to call people’s attention to this serious issue in the vast jungle of shocking everyday news. I got First Prize in Category D for this poster at the 16th International Poster Biennial in Mexico in 2021”.

Poster Monday: Coercion, War is a Violation

The first Monday Poster of April its titled Coercion, War is a Violation and was designed by Emese Deschmann. She was born in Buapest (Hungary) to an art patronizing family, after spending a year at the Merz Academy (Hochschule Für Gestaltung, Kunst und Medien) in Stuttgart, then she graduated from the Faculty of Arts of the University of Pécs with a degree in painting (2000). Emese have gained most of her knowledge from the masters, Sándor Pinczehelyi and Ferenc Lantos. After working in the field of advertising graphics and graphic design work for more than 10 years – therefore gaining a lot of professional and human experience – she have found her way back to artistic poster design and illustration.

“The war next to us sparked the idea, but what I wanted to say is a little more general. Coercion, war is a violation of life itself. Whichever way it ends up, whatever it results in – a collective trauma is inevitable. Whatever the purpose of war is –  an exercise of power, financial or territorial increment, – violence is the humiliation of life” tell us Emese.

Poster Monday: La Catrina

“La Catrina” is the first Poster Monday spot of November and belongs to Gyula Molnár from Hungary. He is a graphic designer and art teacher. His first posters are characteristic Pop Art works, later he switched to drawing and painting in a very detail oriented style. In 1983 he designed a famous Hungarian travel poster, displaying an interesting emblem of the country. His posters are often provocative and erotic. Today he is a member of the Hungarian Poster Association (MPT). Gyula now is retired from teaching but he is still very active as an artist, his newest works focus on provocative topics of sex and politics.

The poster “La Catrina” was made for the collection Calacarteles 5 an event organized by Autopsia Colectiva for the Day of the Dead celebration; that day in Mexico is one of the most important cultural celebrations of the year in which loved ones who have already died are remembered with a rich and colorful event full of symbolic elements among which we find “La Catrina” who is an elegantly dressed skeleton. and it was created by the engraver José Guasalupe Posada as a criticism of people who appear to have or to be something that they are not. The Day of the Dead is celebrated in Mexico on November 1 and 2.

Poster Monday: Green

For this Poster Monday spot we featuring the poster of Lajos Nagy; born in 1971 in a small rural town in Hungary. Graduated from the SZTE JGYPK Art Institute, the Department of Drawing Art History in Szeged, and the Hungarian University of Applied Arts, now MOME in Budapest. He has participated in several group and solo exhibitions in Hungary and the then Yugoslavia.

Lajos Nagy tell us about his poster “The title is “Green”, but only because it has this caption on it. It was said recently in the Hungarian Parliament: “… your party is like a watermelon: beautiful green on the outside, but angry red on the inside!” A Member of Parliament thus criticized the Green Party, paralleling their aspirations with some of the Communists’ goals. Citizens of Central European countries, especially if they are old enough, perhaps are really more sensitive, they have a better view of the dark sides of each political movement. They experienced that every hard dictatorship started as a fresh, youthful, well-intentioned movement, and then they began to look very similar to each other in hurting and killing people, and the end was always a tragedy. Yes, this is a political poster, but not simply against or in favor of a party or movement, but it seeks to highlight the importance of critical thinking and to be bold in expressing our views despite trends and fashion”.

“I love the poster as a branch of art. I used to be more interested in painting, but a poster conveys more direct, easier-to-understand messages, is more versatile in what design elements can be included, such as typography, and reaches many people, so it’s simply more practical. Design is usually considered a practical branch of fine art” says Lajos.

If you take a look at his instagram profile, you will find a very interesting body of work.

Poster Monday: Spiritual Food

The first Poster Monday spot of May goes to Kata Káldor for her poster “Spiritual Food” a great poster to remind the World Book Day (April 23). Kata is from Hungary and studies at the Secondary School of Visual Arts, which were continued in the Applied Graphics department of the Iparművészeti Főiskola. In the 80’s she focused on exhibition graphics (as a contractor for HUNGEXPO, Magyar Hirdető, and external trade companies), and now is mainly interested in three-dimensional and spatial graphic designs. Kata’s posters have been exhibited in multiple places around the world, selected and awarded among the best in the collections 1917-2017 in Russia; Turn a Light On, Mexico; Peruvian Design Biennial – Inernational Poster Competition and several more.

The concept of the poster “Spiritual Food” is very simple: “I think that in order to live – we need bread and water, the book, the reading – like, the bread, the brain is dead without food – the food in the book” says Kata.

Poster Monday: Sacred Heart of Jesus

The first Poster Monday spot of the day belongs to István Horkay  from Hungary for his poster entitled Sacred Heart of Jesus.

We decided to let our Poster Master István Orosz tell you a little bit about István Horkay: “freelance graphic artist, poster designer, animator and filmmaker has a great significance in Hungarian cultural life and his international fame as a designer is also well-known. He works in an extremely conscious way, for him, to be up-to-date and to be modern mean the constant analysis and courageous innovations of the thematic and formal elements, and also the consequent avoidance of the usage of common place In his home-country, that is, in Hungary, he is an active member of the Poster Association”.

About his poster István says “Along the borders of dreams I found for you the sacred poisonous heart and golden door” is a phrase taken up Sacred Heart is Dio‘s third studio album  Sacred Heart, as well as also referring to the group Shakespears Sister.

Poster Monday: The lost Paradise / EVE and GMO

Poster Monday: The lost Paradise / EVE and GMO

The first Poster Monday spot of the day belongs to Gyula Molnár from Hungary. The poster makes reference to the history of the tree of knowledge of good and evil from the Bible, except the story takes place in our current times: Adam lost (only one paradise) But Eve is not sorry about that situation; she has sinned, and she says: nothing GMO and human plastic, only natural, food and erotics. Go is not Good, but it was born and it has a father called knowledge. God then banishes ‘the man’ from the Garden of Eden and then the GMO is banished as well.

Gyula tell us, “I think the poster is the king of the graphic design. But at the moment not to important média. But very, very important the visual language of the poster. There is a new visualisation to the picture culture”.

Gyula Molnár is a graphic designer and art teacher. His first posters are characteristic Pop Art works, later he switched to drawing and painting in a very detail oriented style. In 1983 he designed a famous Hungarian travel poster, displaying an interesting emblem of the country. His posters are often provocative and erotic. He prefers vivid, bright colors, like pink, yellow and blue. Today he is a member of the Hungarian Poster Association (MPT). He is retired from teaching but he is still very active as a artist. His newest works focus on provocative topics of sex and politics.
