Alternative Posters
„Rafa Orrico: Alternative Posters” is a collection celebrating Rafa’s work and the first in a family of books dedicated to illustrators and designers. His designs are reminiscent of the Polish School of Posters, a movement that spanned from the 1950’s through to the 1980’s.
The Polish School of Posters work was defined by using metaphors and painterly aesthetics both of which can be seen in Rafa’s work. Particularly in his posters for Full Metal Jacket, Inglourious Basterds, Trainspotting and more throughout this collection.
Although inspired by the Polish School of Posters, Rafa’s work and style cannot be attributed to one movement. It’s clear that he has taken one approach, the use of a metaphor, an icon, something familiar – and has created his own signature style. One that is instantly recognisable amongst other works on PosterSpy.com and beloved by poster fans.
