This gifted German artist could be one of the poster collectors favorites, if only there were some posters of his to collect. He did only a few, and all of those are so rare that most poster enthusiasts never come across them. A cultured, sophisticated painter, Schnackenberg did most of his poster work for acquaintances in Munich theatrical circles. His designs are a quaint amalgam of caricature and fantasy which he himself called suggestive dreams. With an unerring instinct for color, and an exquisitely refined taste of subtle irony, he created a body of work that is uniquely individualistic--small but choice. Here he concocts a rather startling design for two Munich ballet performers who worked up an act they dubbed Light and Shadows--a variant of the Beauty and the Beast theme. Schnackenbergs poster is rather expressionistic, yet at the same time, tenderly conceived--an intriguing, excellent example of graphic language at its best.
