CINDY SHERMAN Kunsthaus Bregenz, 2006 - Signed

This original exhibition poster by Cindy Sherman was produced for her exhibition at Kunsthaus Bregenz and is hand-signed by the artist in red pen. While the poster is not numbered, it is understood—according to the institution—that only approximately 70 examples were signed, making this a particularly scarce and desirable variant.

The image exemplifies Sherman’s renowned practice of self-portraiture and identity construction. Here, she adopts the guise of a classical figure, referencing historical portraiture while subtly disrupting it through contemporary staging and psychological ambiguity. The direct gaze, stylized costume, and carefully controlled lighting evoke Old Master painting, yet the work remains unmistakably modern—raising questions about authorship, gender, and the performance of identity.

Sherman’s work has consistently challenged the boundaries between photography, painting, and performance, and she is widely regarded as one of the most important artists of her generation. This image reflects her ability to merge art historical reference with conceptual rigor, creating compositions that are both visually compelling and intellectually engaging.

Printed in the pre-digital poster era, this piece retains a richness of tone and depth that enhances the photographic image. The addition of the artist’s signature significantly elevates its collectibility, particularly given the limited number of signed examples.

A rare and highly desirable exhibition poster, appealing to collectors of contemporary art, photography, and signed works by major female artists of the late 20th century.
