Quarez Michel

Michel Quarez (1938–2021) was a French artist known for his vibrant vintage posters, characterized by bold neon colors and expressive brushstrokes. Influenced by his time in Warsaw and his surroundings in Saint-Denis, his posters often depicted themes of social activism, urban life, and community events. Quarez avoided digital tools, preferring traditional printing techniques and experimenting with macules to create striking visual effects. His work gained international recognition, with exhibitions at institutions like the Stedelijk Museum. His vintage posters remain iconic, capturing energy, movement, and the power of visual storytelling in public spaces.
