Gimme Shelter (1970)
Three Sheet (41 X 81 Inches)
£1,500.00
Released in 1970, Gimme Shelter stands as a defining document of the end of the 1960s counterculture, capturing the collision between idealism, rock music, and real-world violence. Centered on the Rolling Stones’ U.S. tour and the fatal chaos at the Altamont Free Concert, the film and its poster came to symbolise the darker reckoning that followed the decade’s dreams of peace and freedom.
The poster uses stark black space punctuated by raw yellow concert imagery and bold pink lettering, creating a sense of urgency and unease. The grainy performance silhouettes and ominous tagline emphasize tension rather than celebration, visually echoing the film’s shift from musical exhilaration to unsettling tragedy.
