When I was 9 years old I started to collect posters.
Genres, themes, formats, aesthetics everything interested me. Nowadays my collection is indexed in various sectors like posters of the City of Paris, music & singers, advertising, beverage, theaters, festivals, perfumes, movies, and a lot of other themes...
Posters play an essential and major role in the circulation of informations. It's easy to see that they reflect the mood of the moment constantly evolving with human society.
With this website I hope to make you discover and/or rediscover the art of poster and reveal the art market for contemporary poster since the seventies or eighties its peak period.

Periodically new posters will be integrated.
Given the large number (about 450000) of my collection it's difficult to put online the oldests as soon as possible.
The proposed visuals are the fruit of painstaking work. My goal: quality shots for the most accurate possible rendering and make you share the emotion in front of every poster.
