Harman Projects and Spoke Art are proud to present Deadly Prey, an exhibition celebrating the vivid legacy and ongoing evolution of Ghanaian hand-painted movie posters.
This singular art form emerged in the 1980s with the rise of mobile cinemas across the country of Ghana. Originally created to advertise VHS screenings in towns and villages without proper movie theaters, these posters were painted on recycled flour sacks by local artists who freely reimagined films through bold colors, exaggerated action, and inventive (and sometimes made up) visual storytelling.
