An iconic graphic work by Alexander Girard created to promote Herman Miller’s Textiles & Objects shop in midtown Manhattan. Originally produced in 1961, this screenprinted poster captures Girard’s singular ability to elevate commercial design into art, blending bold typography, folk-inspired motifs, and vibrant color into a joyful, highly structured composition.
Created to announce the opening of the shop at 8 East 53rd Street, the poster reflects Girard’s broader vision for Textiles & Objects, a retail environment that brought together international folk art, fabrics, and decorative objects under the Herman Miller umbrella. Both a promotional tool and a standalone design statement, it remains a landmark example of mid-century American graphic design.
A striking piece for collectors of Girard, Herman Miller history, or 20th-century modern design.
Pre-owned. Excellent condition.
