Relive the 2011 Academy Awards with this set of minimalist Oscar posters by David Lopez. The series features a set of minimalistic print advertisements for the 10 Best Picture nominees, including Black Swan, Inception, True Grit, The Social Network, and (spoiler alert!) the night's big winner -- The King's Speech.
Each minimalist David Lopez Oscar poster contains the title of the movie, the cast and crew, and a single image that represents the film as a whole (a boxing glove for The Fighter, a Swiss Army knife for 127 Hours, a Facebook 'like' symbol for The Social Network). The David Lopez series is beautifully coloured, quirky, and topical. Want to see what all ten minimalist Oscar posters look like? Check them out in the gallery!
