Müller, Jens 2024 Hans Hillmann and the New Art of Film.
Content
Two West German distributors revolutionized the aesthetics of film posters from the 1950s onwards: Neue Filmkunst and Atlas Film. Both worked with Hans Hillmann (1925-2014), one of the most renowned commercial artists of his time. Hillmann began designing film posters while still a student at the Werkakademie in Kassel. Over a period of more than two decades, he created numerous posters that have become part of the canon of international design history thanks to their revolutionary new visual ideas.
