Today we would like to show you some posters. Typically poster is a combination of both textual and graphic elements, although a poster may be either wholly graphical or wholly text. We love posters because they are fascinating design projects. And they can vary a lot, they may have different goals and objectives. Some posters can be an expression of pure creativity, they look cool, and don't have any special purpose, except their visual aesthetic. Others communicate their message of some social problems or social inequality. There are posters that are aimed at motivating people to something, there are riot posters, there are advertising posters, which main task is promoting a certain product or service. There are plenty of different posters. Musical posters in their turn are a symbiosis of creativity and promotion. So today we've prepared 20 examples of cool music gig posters for your inspiration.
