Original vintage 1981 exhibition poster featuring Fernando Botero's celebrated painting "Dancing" (1980), published by the prestigious John Berggruen Gallery in San Francisco for Botero's exhibition held February 11 through March 14, 1981.
This is an original gallery-issued offset lithograph, not a modern reproduction. Botero's unmistakable style, often referred to as Boterismo, is instantly recognizable through his exaggerated figures, graceful movement, and warm palette. "Dancing" has become one of the artist's most recognizable and beloved compositions.
The upper margin includes the original publication information:
"Dancing" 1980 • oil on canvas • 16" × 13" • © 1981 John Berggruen Gallery
These printed dimensions refer to the original painting, not the poster itself.
The lower margin identifies the exhibition venue and dates:
John Berggruen Gallery228 Grant AvenueSan Francisco, California
February 11 - March 14, 1981
This poster is an excellent collectible for Botero enthusiasts, collectors of Latin American art, or anyone seeking an authentic period exhibition poster from one of San Francisco's premier galleries.
