The exhibition was a retrospective of Talbert's erotically-themed work, a recurring motif for which he was well known. The poster features a striking b&w illustration showing an image of a prostitute on a playing card surrounded by money, dice, and an eight ball. Talbert was an accomplished Pop and assemblage artist closely associated with Wallace Berman and his circle. He died of alcohol poisoning at age 41. Trivial touch of occasional edge wear, else fine ( 25" x 19").

Price: $150.00
