The cover of the Polish biweekly ‘Ruch Muzyczny’, designed by Katarzyna Ziołowska in 1970, exemplifies the spirit of 1970s Polish graphic design where experimentation and bold visual language were integral. Measuring 30 × 40 cm and set in a simple, matte black wooden frame, the composition is structured by three characteristic colors: a warm off-white, deep matte black, and a broken, vivid yellow arranged in horizontal, geometric bands. The lower two-thirds are filled with a grid of yellow squares on a black background, disrupted by a spiral, op-art inspired line that smoothly transitions into yellow dots, evoking a sense of motion. The upper section is accented by strong, vertical sans-serif typography and a modernist layout of text. The surface retains a subtle patina and mild creasing typical of archival paper, affirming the object’s authenticity and its era. The condition is very good – the cover shows no significant damage or evidence of restoration.This piece echoes the rhythm of its era: geometric discipline is balanced by daring color and optical experiment. The framed graphic is not merely an echo of the magazine’s musical theme, but a visual manifesto—a statement that could only emerge amid the modernist pursuits occurring in Poland at the turn of the decade. The light patina on the paper powerfully hints at decades past, when each issue of a cultural periodical opened a small window onto the world
