‘A cross-section of a year chosen at random, the poster collection casts its net in its own archive and presents posters from Paris, London, Moscow, New York, Zurich or Milan. They all have only one thing in common: the year in which they were produced. For once history is not seen as a continuous development, but as a abroad showplace for simultaneity.’ Lars Müller Publishers
