Abstract

Abram Games always knew he wanted to design posters and from a young age, was focused

on seeking out his own opportunities. He made the decision to leave school in pursuit of more

quality art experiences and submitted work to several design competitions by the age of 21

years old. He is best known for his impactful and punchy style, but also for his independent

design nature and controversial posters shedding light on World War II atrocities and aftermath.

Games’s wartime work thrust him to the forefront of the industry and paved the way for dozens

of more high profile opportunities over the course of his life. His influence in graphic design and

British culture spans six decades, truly making his contributions a sign of the times and an

integral part of world history and record.
