What is the Polish poster today: a monument to past glory, a decoration for apartments, a tool of struggle, or zombie design? The second issue of PLOP—Polish Design Revue takes on one of the biggest legends of Polish graphic design: the poster.
PLOP #02 does not offer another polite story about masters, the canon, and the golden age of the Polish Poster School. Instead, it asks what the poster is today and where it is going. Does it still work as a tool of communication, a form of artistic expression, a medium of protest and presence in public space? Or has it become a ritual repeated by the design scene, almost like a para-religion?
