Jagiellonian University Student Film Center “Rotunda”

Poster by Piotr Kunce from 1979 promotes the Jagiellonian University Student Film Center “Rotunda” in Kraków. The central motif is a large, cracking egg from which a film reel spills out—uncoiling and rising dynamically upward like a newly born idea or burst of creative energy. Shell fragments explode outward, enhancing the sense of breakthrough and artistic birth. The realistically rendered film strip symbolizes both cinema and the emerging artistic potential of the academic environment. The poster is composed in soft pastel yellows and grays, with a contrasting deep blue film strip, reinforcing the message’s strength while maintaining a slightly surreal tone.
