Not examined outside of frame.The San Francisco Art Institute was “the first and only racially integrated art school in the United States in the 60s (Harvard Film Archive). This poster features two important works of experimental cinema, by one white and one black filmmaker.Bleu Shut is something of an underground classic. "Robert Nelson was one of the key artists of the American experimental film movement, particularly in his home base of San Francisco, where he was the first head of the San Francisco Art Institute's film department." (AMPAS).The Last Supper is the first film by William Henderson. An important voice in experimental cinema, Henderson was also one of the few black experimental filmmakers of the time.A version of this poster was issued as one side of the November 1969 issue of The Front. However, our copy was never folded. Note: The "Society For A******* and Idiots" has the same acronym as the San Francisco Art Institute.Extra postage for international or priority.
