PKZ Burger-Kehl & Co, 1935, by Alex Walter Diggelmann
This 1935 poster by Swiss graphic artist Alex Walter Diggelmann features a minimalist design focusing on a large, golden-yellow box, slightly opened to reveal a dark interior. The box is positioned against a plain background, with the label "PKZ Burger-Kehl & Co AG" displayed along the box's edge, indicating the brand. The composition is devoid of additional imagery or text, directing attention solely to the box itself.
Alex Walter Diggelmann (1902–1987) was a prominent Swiss graphic artist known for his contributions to poster design. His work often employed minimalist aesthetics, focusing on singular objects to convey a clear message. The 1935 PKZ poster exemplifies this approach, using the image of a box to represent the company's product packaging. This style aligns with the "Sachplakat" or "object poster" movement, which emphasized simplicity and realism in advertising.
We've carefully remastered this print to make it available for you to enjoy. Our restoration process is detailed and precise but, because this artwork was never created digitally and no original digital file exists, some slight imperfections may remain when viewed up close, including some slightly blurred edges. To preserve its quality, we only offer it in sizes up to A2. Please do check the final product photo carefully and ensure you're happy before purchasing.
