Johnny Boxer is a 1976 by Martin Walker, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This poster shows a bold, graphic scene in red, blue, and white. A man in a suit and sunglasses stands over a smaller figure with a star-spangled dress. His arms reach down like a puppet master, gripping the figure’s wrists. The background is split into red and blue halves, giving it a sharp, divided look. The text at the bottom names the show: *Johnny Boxer*, with a phone number and theater address. The style is flat and stylized, not realistic. Look up Walker, Martin to see more of his bold, political art.
British designer Martin Walker turned bold typography and stark slogans into rallying cries on 1970s protest posters.
