DESIGNER UNKNOWN PARCO ["THE SKIN OF A WOMAN IS NOCTURNE" / "THE SKIN OF A WOMAN TRAVELS"]. Two posters. Circa 1975.
401/2x281/2 inches.
Condition varies, generally A: minor creases in top margin. Paper.
We could not find the name of the designer who created these two posters for this Japanese department store, but it is very typical of the Japanese approach towards advertising. The message, more like poetry than an advertising slogan, is an invitation to the reader to use their imagination and come up with their own interpretations. In this case, it would definitely create sensuous dreams.
