Exhibition poster with bold all-caps typography reading "FALLEN FACES" over a colorful, distorted portrait photograph.
Summary
A minimalist exhibition poster featuring the text "FALLEN FACES" in bold all-caps serif type positioned above a colorfully distorted portrait of a face with pastel paint overlays, on a pure black background.
Visual description
The composition divides vertically: large white serif capitals spell "FALLEN FACES" occupying the upper two-thirds. Below sits a rectangular portrait photograph of a face with visible pastel color blocking overlaid—yellows, blues, pinks, and muted tones—partially obscuring and stylizing the photographic detail. Event information in small type appears at the bottom: "20.09.2010 / HOCHBURG - Hirschstrasse 27, 70173 Stuttgart / OPENING 18:30". The entire poster set against deep black.
Key takeaway
Typographic dominance paired with a deconstructed portrait creates sophisticated visual tension, turning a photograph into a graphic element rather than a standalone image.
Reuse notes
Excellent model for arts/cultural event posters. The interplay of traditional serif type with modern distorted imagery works especially well for experimental or contemporary exhibitions.
