Original Querelle Film Poster | German Release, 1982 | Andy Warhol Design
Original German release poster for Querelle (1982), designed by Andy Warhol for Rainer Werner Fassbinder’s final film, adapted from Jean Genet’s novel. This offset lithograph, printed by Verlag und Alleinvertrieb Universal Prints, Hamburg, presents Warhol’s stark dual-profile composition in the scarcer grey colorway—distinct from the more commonly encountered blue and green variants—derived from a Polaroid photograph and rendered with his characteristic linear minimalism and pop-inflected sensibility. Issued for the film’s German distribution, the poster features Brad Davis, Jeanne Moreau, Franco Nero, and Laurent Malet, and reflects the late-period intersection of Warhol’s portrait practice with European art cinema. Printed on heavier stock typical of the issue and preserved in excellent condition, Grade A, not linen-backed. Catalogue raisonné reference: Maréchal 20. Printer credited; artist fully attributed.
