this striking black and white silkscreen poster was created for the tübinger zimmertheater production of fernando arrabal's "die nacht der puppen" (the night of the dolls). The design features a surreal, high-contrast photographic composition where a doll's face is partially obscured by a dark, abstract form, creating a sense of unease and drama. The typography is crisp and modern, arranged in a structured hierarchy typical of the era's graphic design.

why it matters
- designed by the renowned duo f+r grindler (frieder and renate grindler), key figures in german post-war graphic design.
- printed by domberger, a legendary screen printing studio known for collaborating with top artists and designers.
- a prime example of the innovative visual identity created for the tübinger zimmertheater in the 1960s.
