Movie Posters on Parade
The California Heritage Museum in Santa Monica has explored the Golden
State through exhibitions on skateboarding, ceramics, and the citrus
industry. Starting May 23, the museum presents Gotta Dance: The Art of
the Movie Poster. Mike Kaplan, who created campaigns for A Clockwork
Orange and 2001: A Space Odyssey, collected the vintage one-sheets that
hail from the heyday of the studio system. The bold graphics were meant
to be discarded after a week. Now you’re more likely to see them at
auctions; a poster from Fritz Lang’s Metropolis is currently listed at
$850,000.

Broadcast (1941), and Seven Brides for Seven Brothers (1954). Top
