Yaacov Agam : « La seule langue que je parle, c'est le visuel. »

Pionnier de l’art cinétique, Yaacov Agam (1928-2026) était l’une des figures les plus fascinantes de…

The poster for 'Le Crocrodrome de Zig et Puce' bursts with color and playful energy, perfectly capturing the exuberant spirit of Jean Tinguely’s visual universe in 1977. It blends hand-drawn illustration, collage, watercolor washes, and spontaneous lettering into a vivid, fragmented composition — somewhere between outsider art, comic strip, and experimental graphic design. The word 'CROCRODROME' appears in warped, dancing black letters, surrounded by hybrid creatures: a green crocodile, a giant snail, a lizard-like dinosaur, a stylized black spider. Cartoonish figures — including Zig and Puce — float or interact with the forms, merging narrative whimsy with visual art. The background features a patchwork of watercolor stains in yellow, green, pink, and beige, enhancing the poster’s raw and expressive feel. At the bottom, handwritten exhibition details at the Centre Georges Pompidou add to the artisanal, DIY charm. This poster functions not only as a promotional piece but as a standalone artwork that reflects the Crocrodrome’s spirit: a universe of invention, play, mechanical fantasy, and childlike imagination.
