"Vijay Path" Ghanaian Movie Poster

About the Item

Vijaypath was a Bollywood action hit in 1994. It's critically acclaimed soundtrack topped charts across the world and became one of the most recognizable in India's history. The film's international success is evident in this hand-painted advertisement from Ghana. Frequently unable to import official posters, theaters in Ghana hired enterprising artists to create and embellish designs to promote the films in their own style. The result was its own highly sought after genre. This work has incongruously placed—yet wonderfully rendered—portraits of the main characters, juxtaposed with impeccable graphic letters that communicates the artist's vernacular.
