Description
In 1994, we opened the International Poster Gallery on Newbury Street in Boston. As a collector and private dealer, I wanted to share my passion with a broader audience. Now, through this website, we hope to introduce a global audience to the joys of poster art, one of the most important art forms of the twentieth century. Our philosophy is reflected in our name: we believe great posters come from every corner of the globe. Unlike most galleries, which are dominated by French posters, International Poster Gallery features a diverse selection from around the world, especially Italy, Switzerland, the Soviet Union, France, the U.S. and Holland. My interest in posters began with a desire to fill bare walls at home and office. To my surprise I found that no one was collecting Italian posters, despite their obvious beauty. Now after more than a decade of tracking down these great posters, I am proud to say that International Poster Gallery holds the largest collection of Italian poster masterpieces for sale in the world. Over the years we have supplemented our Italian collection with many classics from other countries. Posters represent the intersection of art and commerce, a mixture that reflects my own training and background. After studying Art History at Yale University, where I specialized in Italian Renaissance art, I earned an MBA at Harvard and spent over twenty years in corporate life. The Gallery has allowed me to exercise my twin passions simultaneously!...
