The “Circus Poodle with Drum” poster, designed by Liliana Baczewska in 1965, represents the Polish School of Poster Art, where graphic expression and wit converge with mid-century modern form. The composition unfolds around a sketch-like white poodle energetically playing a vibrant orange and red drum adorned with decorative fringe. Above, a striking red and white parrot perches on a teal pole, injecting a playful accent. Each letter of the word 'CYRK' is rendered in a unique color and style—orange, gold, purple, teal—with geometric motifs and dynamic brushstrokes. The deep, matte black background intensifies the saturation and contrast of the foreground colors, while the overall style blends mid-century modern sensibility with elements of expressionism and playful abstraction. The poster is offset printed on smooth paper, with a matte finish characteristic of the era. This piece remains in excellent collector’s condition, with no signs of wear, restoration, or damage.This poster offers a visual narrative of the 1960s—a period when Polish graphic design embraced creative freedom and engaged the viewer through playful form. The poodle, like a circus narrator, invites the audience into a world of spectacle, where color and movement are as significant as the message. Humor and expression intertwine with a spirit of experimentation, each letter of the title dancing to the rhythm set by the energetic drum. The poster speaks in the voice of an era that valued bold gestures and unexpected color juxtapositions, granting graphic art a sense of freedom
