Soho Rep showcases a remarkable collection of theatrical posters, emphasizing collaboration among illustrators, playwrights, and directors. This eclectic mix features diverse artistry, from intricate designs to minimalist graphics. Studio Usher leads the creative direction, encouraging flexibility for artists, as highlighted by Naomi Usher's philosophy. The partnership allows illustrators to experiment freely, leading to imaginative results that convey the essence of each play. Luci Gutiérrez, a featured illustrator, appreciates this creative latitude, noting that the project's only guideline is to reflect the spirit of the play, which fosters truly unique illustrations.
For an illustrator, it's rare to find a space of freedom and play - without restrictions or the need to create pleasing images.
Each unique piece is built upon the expertise of multiple disciplines resulting in a delightfully eclectic collection of bold designs.
I believe in providing a detailed brief, but I always want to leave room for the illustrator's interpretation so they can offer up something extraordinary.
The only requirement for the posters is to reflect the spirit of the play.
