The 56th annual New York Film Festival kicked off over the weekend, and to help celebrate, The Saul Bass Archive @FilmArtGallery will be offering Saul's brilliant design for the 2nd NYFF. Always a favorite among Bass fans and design aficionados, the poster got widespread exposure during the final seasons of the TV series MAD MEN, when it was prominently featured in the office of the 'Peggy Olson' character.
The poster will be among a group of Saul's film festival designs which we will be releasing later this month. Visit the Saul Bass Archive here.
Finally, with the latest remake of A STAR IS BORN - starring Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga - hitting U.S. screens this week, take a look at our posters for the last two versions: the 1954 masterpiece starring Judy Garland & James Mason and directed by George Cukor and the 1976 hit starring Barbra Streisand & Kris Kristofferson. Here's an ultra-rare billboard for the latter, featuring the iconic Francesco Scavullo photograph that helped make it the second highest-grossing film of 1976. See our posters for both films here.
