Melbourne
Bally Blonde by Bernard Villemot, 1982
Danté's upstairs gallery, 150-156 Gertrude Street Fitzroy Monday 13th Februray, 6pm to 9pm
He’s been described as having ‘the ability to reduce all messages to simple lines’ and having an ‘engaging and irresistible charm’. You’d swear that was me they were talking about wouldn’t you? Bernard Villemot is one of the world’s best poster artists, and surely one of the coolest.
On Monday night Gallerie Montmartre is opening an exhibition of his works and, what’s more, they are giving away a door prize of a $500 Bally poster by Villemont. Champagne and poster art, sounds sophisticated. Don’t forget to swan or you might not fit in.
