Gérard Courbouleix–Dénériaz, known as Razzia, born in Paris in 1950, is one of the greatest artists in the world of advertising posters and illustrations of the second half of the Twentieth Century. His career began in the 1970s, when he tied his signature to some of the most important brands, especially French and, in particular, Louis Vuitton. His style vividly evokes the breath of Art Déco, the golden age of the European and American poster.

The original subjects of Razzia's posters are handmade in oil or acrylic, with a pictorial technique, without the use of computer graphics, completed and enriched in the silkscreen transposition from the text, always carefully studied and properly placed. The result is at the same time rétro and modern, persuasive and incisive, sensual and strong-willed, effectively communicative. Among his most important clients were Louis Vuitton, Stetson, Lancia, L'Oréal, Bloomingdale's, Macy's, Harrod's, the Nice Jazz Festival, the City of Deauville and many Champagne producers. His posters are appreciated and collected by the United States, Europe, Australia and Japan.

Framed poster.
