ERIK NITSCHE (1908-1998)

GENERAL DYNAMICS / NUCLEODYNAMICS. 1955.


50¼x35½ inches, 127½x89½ cm. R. Marsens, Lausanne.
Condition A-: minor creases, abrasions and restoration at edges; minor repaired pin holes in corners.

"In addition to his artistic inspirations, Nitsche derived much of his imagery from science itself, such as the abstracted symbols for isotopes used in his poster for 'nucleodynamics'" (https://www.typotheque.com/articles/erik_nitsche_the_reluctant_modernist). This is the Japanese language poster from the initial Atoms for Peace series.
