Graphics and Posters

Introduction

The collection comprises approx. 400,000 works that document important aspects in the development of graphic design and printmaking. In addition to political, cultural and travel posters, it also covers type design, product advertising and corporate design. Besides iconic works, there are also numerous collections of papers that tell the story of the design, culture and history of printing from a new perspective, such as early colour and screen prints, feminist posters and flyers from the early days of techno culture. The collection is currently being expanded with a focus on female positions and perspectives. The collection can be seen in changing presentations on the 2nd floor.
