You are cleared for take-off with this globe-spanning Dransy Air France poster. Conceptually, the artist couldn’t have messed with his assignment any less: Two words of text. Air. France. Well, why not have a pilot hoisting an indigo silhouette of France into the air. Check. Now take a dropout-white planeform and have it cast its shadow over the face of a grey-toned, stripped down planet to convey global service. I roger that. And does any posterist make better use of white space than Dransy? Excellence through iconic minimalism. Over and out!
