This mid-1980s artist made bold, single-sheet posters that feel like snapshots from a city wall. In “Untitled (1985)” a grainy yellow bus glides past a storefront whose hand-lettered sign reads “COFFEE,” the whole scene lit by the harsh glow of a streetlamp. The print looks like it could peel off tomorrow, ink still fresh, paper slightly curled at the edge. Tap the poster to feel the weight of that moment, right there on the sidewalk.
