VIctor Moscoso 1

Although Victor Moscoso is an academically trained graphic designer he became famous by doing everything opposite how he was trained. They taught him about the colors and he just turned them in opposite. His posters were  full with vivid colors, a bit erotical and evocative. He is one of the most important and influenced graphic designer in psychedelia movement.

                                  
                                                      

 He made hand made font, photo collage, and created new portraying psychadelic consciousness.
In some of his designs you had to star into the image and try to see the dazzling effect contrasting colour and intense patterns. That was latter called "slow read" posters. Although his designs are completely different from anything that had been made before i still get impressions of art nouveau by looking at the shapes in his posters.
