Le Petit Festival du Theatre

Radovan Jenko

When I worked on the design concept of posters identity for Le Petit Festival du Théâtre, an art festival in Dubrovnik, I started with the characteristics of my friend Vinko Prizmic, who founded the festival: his love of beautiful women and the timeless beauty of the charming town of Dubrovnik with typical Mediterranean atmosphere. The calligraphy used on the first poster became the recognisable feature of all subsequent ones.
