🎭 Don Juan – 1983 – Original Polish Theater Poster by Franciszek Starowieyski
Molière’s Classic Reimagined in Surrealist Eroticism | Teatr Nowy, Warsaw | 68 × 96 cm | Poland
🎬 Introduction
This striking 1983 original Polish theater poster for Molière’s "Don Juan" was created by the celebrated artist Franciszek Starowieyski for Teatr Nowy in Warsaw. Starowieyski’s unmistakable hand is evident in the poster’s surrealist erotic drawing, where baroque flourishes and dreamlike forms swirl around the infamous libertine. The composition is both provocative and enigmatic, with sensuous, exaggerated figures rendered in Starowieyski’s signature monochrome palette, inviting the viewer into a world where desire and morality blur. The poster’s bold, hand-drawn typography and intricate linework reflect the avant-garde spirit of Polish poster art in the early 1980s, a period marked by creative resistance and visual experimentation.
✨ Why It Matters
Franciszek Starowieyski is a towering figure in the Polish School of Poster Art, renowned for his surreal, often erotic imagery and his ability to infuse classical subjects with contemporary psychological depth. This "Don Juan" poster is a quintessential example of his mature style, merging Old Master draftsmanship with subversive wit. Produced during a vibrant era for Polish theater and graphic design, the poster stands as both a collectible artifact and a testament to the era’s cultural ferment. Original theater posters from this period, especially those by Starowieyski, are highly sought after for their rarity, artistic merit, and crossover appeal to collectors of both fine art and graphic design. The work’s erotic undertones and surrealist motifs also connect it to broader European art movements, making it a conversation piece for any collection.

Original print, not a reissue. The poster is printed on standard matte stock typical of early 1980s Polish theater posters. Minor edge wear and light handling creases may be present, consistent with age and original display, but the artwork remains vivid and striking. No major tears or losses; folds, if any, are unobtrusive. Displays beautifully when framed, preserving the full impact of Starowieyski’s surrealist vision.
