16mo. Festival de Teatro Puertorriqueño

This typographic poster, consisting of red and black hand drawn serif type, creates a maze of borders and paths around the centered pinball machine and black figures of dancing women. The poster evokes a slight mischievousness, with the smile inside the pinball machine above the text “it’s more fun to complete” expressing a sense of humor and quirkiness present throughout the poster. The poster itself is meant to advertise the sixteenth anniversary of the Puerto Rican Theater Festival, presenting the staging of a play named “La Movida de Victor Campolo” by Puerto Rican playwright Luis Rosario Quiles at the Tapia Theater in celebration. Made with silk screen printing, this large poster was most likely hung along streets and shops, drawing attention with its near chaotic composition and exciting imagery.
