Salon De La Chimie Paris 1953 Paul Colin Chemistry Expo Poster
A 1953 Paul Colin poster for the Paris chemistry fair with a surreal glass flask and small flags. Mid-century modernist art with real graphic wit.
Description
This 1953 poster by Paul Colin advertises the Deuxieme Salon de la Chimie, the European chemical arts fair held June 18 to 29 at Paris's Porte de Versailles. A giant blue glass flask cradles a hand holding a globe, with a tube of small nation flags winding through it. Colin's clean surrealist style makes it a landmark of mid-century French graphic design. Ideal for offices, labs, and modernist art lovers.
