Cork International Film Festival poster from 1992

Cork Film Festival, Poster, Kieran O'Connor

The 1992 festival poster is a photographic montage of a gritty realist scene comprising a large silver film reel in the upper right corner against a concrete distressed-coloured grey/blue-black background tinted with reddish tones. The lower half of the poster depicts a scene strewn with film-like debris including torn cinema tickets, watch parts, teeth, foil sweet-wrappers, cogs & wheels, a champagne bottle cork, a radiator key, a bracelet with bright beads as well as pictures of cinema actors including Sharon Stone and Sylvester Stallone. To the left of the film reel is a smaller spray-painted image of a man carrying a flag, depicted in the Russian workers' style. The Festival heading appears to be spray-painted in white to the left of the poster while the remaining notes are printed at the footer in gold on a black border.
