Description
Poster, advertising a concert in the 4th Victor Jara festival, 1982.
The poster is grey, and is made with no true orientation - the design of the poster allows it to be flipped 180 degrees and still be read. In the centre of the poster is an image of a hand holding a rifle with the person's other arm outstretched over a small image which resembles the Chilean flag and a dove of peace. To the other side is another hand holding a guitar, with the person's other hand likewise outstretched. The image is made so that in any orientation one of the people is upside down. Above the image, in either orientation, reads "4th Victor Jara Festival 1982 and Osvaldo Rodriguez & Dean Reed. In either orientation, one of these instances is upside down.
Osvaldo Rodriguez was a Cuban musician. Dean Reed was an American singer, song writer and social activist.
