Sobre este artículo
Kent, OH: Pro-Arts [Pro Arts], 1970. Vintage poster for the Women's Liberation Movement, showing a Day-Glo orange Venus symbol, with a raised fist centered at its nexus, on a bright blue background.
Founded in 1967 by brothers Mike and Ted Trikilis in Kent, Ohio, Pro-Arts initially operated as a gallery and art supply store called the Green Gas House. Sensing an increasing demand for inexpensive countercultural art, the brothers purchased three cartons of antiwar posters from a Chicago vendor and moved to Medina, changing the company name to Pro-Arts in the process. The company began manufacturing posters, usually employing freelance (often student) artists, and by the mid-1970s was one of the top poster distributors in the midwest.
Substantial debt and a number of high-profile lawsuits would force Pro-Arts to file for bankruptcy in 1981, ultimately liquidating four years later. The company is today best remembered for its most successful creation, the Farrah Fawcett swimsuit poster, created in 1976.
Silkscreen, approximately 33 x 21 inches, archivally mounted in a frame measuring 21.5 x 33.5 inches. Fine.
