Description: 1988 Vintage Original Seoul Olympics Jose Luis Cuevas "Coloso" Poster (Ships in a Tube) These 32 year old posters are in mint condition and came out of the Galleries original box that we obtained from a storage auction. Artist: Jose Luis CuevasTitle: Coloso Olympia Seoul Poster size 24" x 36" Originally printed for the actual Seoul Olympiad by Lloyd Shin who was responsible for finding artists to create the images. Artist: José Luis Cuevas (1934-2017) makes etchings, illustrations, sculptures, and paintings, though he is perhaps best known for his drawings; Cuevas explains, “perhaps because I was born in a paper mill and pencil factory, paper has always had a great fascination for me.” Though he briefly attended the eminent Mexican institution Escuela de Pintura, Cuevas considers himself a self-taught draughtsman in search of an alternative to the Mexican Muralists and their social messages. Cuevas has said that his drawings represent the isolation of man and an inability to communicate; many of his drawings feature distorted human figures, or figures that transform into animals.
