Introduction
Posteriati is a gallery in SoHo specializing in movie posters since 1995. They have an extensive online presence on their website, where you can browse and buy posters from all over the world. I selected 20 posters from their "New York City" tag, which highlights films set in New York.
The posters track the enormous influence of New York on the rest of the country and beyond, highlighting American soft power with foreign posters for American films. Viewers can also track how graphic design styles vary throughout various locations and time periods.
