2001: A Space Odyssey (1968)
Style B 1968 US One Sheet for Kubrick classic, featuring artwork by Bob McCall.
2001: A Space Odyssey is the rare film whose mythology extends even to its advertising, imagery that feels less like promotion and more like prophecy. This is a wonderfully illustrated vision of lunar outposts, deep-space quiet, and humanity poised on the edge of an unknown future.
The poster’s composition, astronauts studying data against the stark lunar landscape, the Earth rising in the distance, captures the film’s feeling. Rendered in cool blues, silvers, and shadows, the artwork evokes both the precision of scientific progress and the vast, almost spiritual solitude of space. Its typography, anchored by that unmistakable title treatment, brings a clean, modernist clarity that mirrors the film’s design sensibility.
