Festival Théâtral à Moscou 1934

This elegant French-language poster was created for the Festival Théâtral de Moscou, held from September 1–10, 1934. Its modernist design cleverly merges architecture and music: the grand façade of the Bolshoi Theatre is depicted as if it were rising out of a giant piano keyboard, with a conductor in the foreground orchestrating the performance.

The composition reflects the international cultural exchange of the 1930s, when Moscow sought to present itself as a world center for the performing arts. With its bold red background, striking contrasts, and streamlined typography, the poster stands as a fine example of interwar European graphic design and Soviet cultural promotion.
