The first ever collection of Niki & Jean's radiant posters, is a must for fans of both artists and graphic designers alike. Niki de Saint Phalle's bold, colourful work lent itself perfectly to graphic design, when she started producing posters in the early 1970's. Likewise, her partner Jean Tinguely, began creating poster art around the same time. Both artists developed their talent in this genre and this lively collection offers, brilliant reproductions of their most important posters, many of which, the two artists collaborated on together. This selection includes posters both with Niki de Saint Phalle's signature Nanas and Jean Tinguely's abstract chromatic compositions. This beautifully produced volume includes an enlightening introduction by Isabel Siben and an appendix with a catalogue raisonne of 150 posters by both artists.

A good book, but the others about Niki are better,

This review is from: Niki de Saint Phalle & Jean Tinguely Posters (Paperback)
I came across Niki de Saint Phalle recently, wondering how I could possibly not have known about this amazing artist. I purchased a number of books by and about her, and I would have to say this is my least favorite. Partly because I love her bold and beguiling use of color, and the posters by her husband are black and white drawings. He designs and builds mixed media, movable, structures, which are amazing to see - but the drawings are less compelling. It's a book I will probably keep, but not my favorite.
