Examines the history of billboards and their place in art, advertising, and society. The book traces the history of the phenomenon the French call gigantisme from its beginnings in outsized posters through the major events of the twentieth century. Billboards reflect the trends in advertising art and have, in turn, influenced fine artists. In these 250 examples from all over the world, billboards give us a good picture of what we think “the good life” is. Introduction by David Hockney.
