The annual Imaginus Poster Fair returned to the CAW Student Centre yesterday, offering a variety of prints, posters, and artwork for sale.
Imaginus Posters tours their “mobile gallery” to universities across Canada, propping up for just a few days to sell a variety of art prints, from SZA album covers and Studio Ghibli movie posters, to works by Van Gogh and Katsushika Hokusai.
The fair is open today from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. and tomorrow from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
Posters were available in multiple sizes, from small 14 in. art prints to large 36 in. maps. Prices ranged from $10 to $30, with plexiglass and wooden frames available for an additional charge.
For some students, the poster fair has become an annual campus tradition and a welcome break between classes.
Luc Robillard, a third-year English and creative writing student, said that he’s been anticipating the fair for “a while.”
“Posters are like art,” Robillard told the Lance. “Seeing all the people here, seeing what they like, I’m like, what do other people wanna get? What are they interested in? Just sharing interests — I love that.”
Edith Diubaldo, a second-year drama student, likened the poster fair to a museum.
“You get to actually go up and look at the posters,” she said. “It also helps just to kind of see the size, because sometimes you’re not working with a lot of space on your walls.”
Igor Kritskiy, a second-year computer science student, affirmed the benefits of easily browsing different posters in-person without having to navigate large online websites.
“Not that I don’t trust online sellers, but [the fair] being here while I’m here, it just kind of pushes me to go buy something,” he said.
Students interested in buying posters for themselves can visit the Imaginus Poster Fair in the CAW Student Centre today between 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. or tomorrow from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m.
