See Olly Moss' 85 Years Of Oscar Poster

In celebration of The Oscars on February 24, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences unveiled today the newest addition to its show poster collection. The commemorative poster was designed by English artist, graphic designer and illustrator Olly Moss in collaboration with Gallery1988. The special edition piece features 85 Oscar statuettes, each one distinctly inspired by the Best Picture winners from 1927 to 2012. Moss, a graduate of the University of Birmingham, is best known for such works as the "Thor" cast poster for Marvel Entertainment, the cover artwork for the "Resistance 3" video game, and his recent book Silhouettes from Popular Culture. One of the most sought-after screen print artists working today, Moss has created illustrations for The New York Times and The Guardian, and is commissioned by Empire magazine to design a new movie poster illustration every month.
