Stanislaw Zagorski

Stanisław Andrzej Zagórski (11 January 1933 – August 27, 2025) was a Polish graphic designer, illustrator, type designer and educator. He was known for his work in book design, record jackets, magazine illustration, posters and advertisements. Zagórski was one of the founders of the Polish School of Posters and became one of the first Polish graphic artists to achieve success in the United States.

Polish art critic, Stanisław Ledochowski, opined that, "Zagórski's film posters are an excellent commentary on the films he illustrates ... one learns more from his posters than from most others ... since poster art admits a sensual joy of color and of unlimited form, there is the great temptation of falling into artistic hedonism ... in spite of this, Zagórski has remained an intellectual, avoiding superficial effects and mannerisms ... each of his posters is new and individual in style, and each evidences thoroughgoing thought and observation on the part of the creative artist."
