Expo '58, also known as the Brussels World's Fair, held in 1958. The French text on the poster, "DEVENEZ INTERPRETE BENEVOLE EXPO '58," translates to "Become a Volunteer Interpreter Expo '58". The poster was created to recruit volunteer translators for the event. The artist is identified as Depauw, and the printer is Marci - Bruxelles.
The poster features two silhouetted men in hats, with one appearing to be gesturing or speaking to the other. The fair itself was the first major World Expo after World War II and was known for its optimistic, mid-century modern design and its theme, which was centered on humanity and progress |
