Post by: TheAnswerMVP2001 on November 24, 2012, 08:38:21 PM: We need more people posting Italian posters around here, so I look forward to seeing what you have, and hopefully seeing some stuff I haven't see before to add to my own want list. Italian posters are my favorite to collect.

Of all the Italian designers Casaro is the last in order of time that has really left a mark in the history of our hobby. I hate to admit it, but after him Italy has not created any other masters in this art... Too bad because we had a nice tradition to carry on! :-[

This poster is certainly one of the most beautiful Italian posters of the 80s (perhaps even internationally). Like a lot to me too!

From what I know - as it often happened - poster designers had to draw the sketches without ever having seen the movie and in this case Sciotti had received only few scene photos to prepare the Blu Velvet poster. Unfortunately he was inspired by a scene that Lynch has discarted in the final cut..
a pretty strong one

I have few posters from other countries in order to make a comparison, but surely the quality of italian paper is pretty poor. I have only one American poster, a 6sh, and the difference is remarkable. Maybe, but I'm not sure, we are on the same level of French (?)
However, just look at the poor condition of some of my 2fogli to understand that luckily I'm not very demanding on this aspect ;)

Below I have put some new pics..

MANIAC - M.Carreras - 1963 - 2fogli - art by Longi

Post by: eatbrie on December 18, 2012, 12:01:06 PM: No, French paper is actually pretty good, considering. There is some bad French paper, but it's more on a per title basis. Italian is the worst. Spanish is pretty bad too, but I don't like Spanish art, so I don't collect it.

Anyhow, you've got some good stuff there, some i've already added to my 2,000 Wanted poster list.

Ops..you're right. I thought that artwork for Videodrome was equal to the French and that of Rabid was similar to the Spanish. I checked and I was wrong.. memory plays tricks!

I usually try to avoid re-realese (this poster came out when the movie is back in Italian cinemas in 1996) and this one in particular was also a bit ill-treated, but it cost me a little and first Italian edition is completely different and too expensive for me. So, waiting to win the lottery, I enjoy the artwork of Saul Bass in large format.. that is always a pretty sight!

Great looking additions, Orfeo.

And gotta say, did the designer borrow on (was inspired by) this artwork, just a little? ;)

Mmmhm.. Jeff let me guess..

Simeoni certainly knew and admire the work of Saul Bass , ther is no doubt.
In Italy , for the first issue of Vertigo had not been used the original design but right one of Simeoni, completely different. This is why I like to think that with his Deep Red 2fogli Simeoni has wanted to make a tribute to the maestro as a partial compensation..
would be a nice story, isn't it? ;)

It would be... yes it would. :)

Especially since Simeoni was a fan and admirer of Bass's work. clap

The comparison with the work of Bass is difficult, maybe impossible, styles are too different.. but I love this too: great poster!

If any of you understand italian, here is a video-interview with Sandro Simeoni in his studio in Rome. He talks about his career, his problems with censorship (12 complaints suffered!) and of course shows some of his most famous works. Enjoy!

While very different, the Symeoni is beautiful-- Novak and Jimmy Stewart look incredible. thumbup

I like it very much. clap
