My lecture was about the relation of time and space in posers. I described them as the genre of “hic at nunc”. Posters are on the point of intersection of time and place, they are said to be the art of “here and now”. The message of a poster concerns with only one particular moment: it would be meaningless in an earlier time and would be invalid after the announced event as it does not make any sense in other places. 
During the lecture a collection of my works were projected where the above mentioned kind of Time-Space-Poster intersection was dominating.
I am ready to admit that some of my posters in a sense have never been real posters at all. They do not fulfil their function if we expected them to be commercial posters and they are not sufficient applied graphic works if we expected them to compliance with clients. But I would like to believe that they begin to talk if we are interested in the age, in the world that was given to us to live in, if we should like to know how ideas were coming and going among the different fields of culture, how a theatre-message was communicated by the means of visuality, how literature was written further in the language of fine arts, and how the originally subordinate idea has become independent, equal and may be personal. If these poster-graphics had message, probably they will have it too, apart from borders and periods.
