Human Rights week, Poster

Hi Sweta,

I enjoyed reading your submission, especially considering your inclusion of Saul Bass and his famous work on film posters, such as The Shining, The Man with the Golden Arm, Vertigo, Anatomy of a Murder, etc. I find it interesting that Saul Bass was the designer that was commissioned by UNESCO to establish artwork that promotes the celebration and awareness of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The inclusion of some of the most admired articles of the declaration really emphasizes the intention of the poster and truly captures the full essence of celebrating Human Rights. 

Hey Sweta,

You provided a well-written and informative description of the artwork created by Saul Bass. They have highlighted the significance of Bass's work in film posters and also shed light on his lesser-known commission for the U.S. National Commission for UNESCO. Their description of the powerful statement conveyed by the poster, with flames blazing from the articles of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, effectively captures the visual impact and importance of the artwork. Additionally, they have provided relevant details about the condition of the poster and its inclusion in the book "Saul Bass, A Life in Film and Design." Overall, their comment demonstrates a good understanding of the subject matter and effectively communicates the key elements of the artwork and its historical context.

Hi Sweta, 

I appreciate your instructive piece about the legendary Saul Bass, a graphic designer who made a big impact on the world of movie posters. Bass's contributions to classic movies like "The Shining," "The Man with the Golden Arm," "Vertigo," and "Anatomy of a Murder" are an outstanding example of his abilities and creative vision. Finding out that Bass participated in producing artwork for the 1964 Human Rights Week promotion by the US National Commission for UNESCO is fascinating. You described a strong and thought-provoking poster with a burst of flames rising from the tenets of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. The theme of the declaration—that all people are born free and equal in dignity and rights—is successfully captured. Thank you for sharing this intriguing work of art with us and providing pertinent information regarding its state and publication in the book. It's amazing to see how Saul Bass's imagination and brilliance transcended the world of cinema and had a long-lasting influence on the advancement of human rights.
