Here's a great collection of film posters and matchboxes from India. They were collected by English artist and illustrator Matt Lee.

Matchboxes

Matchboxes from the Subcontinent. Collected during my time working from Bangalore, these matchboxes are the tangible memories of my various travels and experiences through India. The random and disparate juxtapositions of the imagery encapsulate the mix of historic, mythological and contemporary visual culture in India. New matchboxes are added regularly. An interview about this matchbox collection can be read over at www.60over90.com.

South Indian Film Posters

Macho Men and Flirtatious Women. Local language, hand drawn lithographic film posters and the larger, glossier offset film posters contribute largely to the visual culture and character of the streets of Bangalore. Below is an ongoing gallery of these film posters I have been photographing as well as a one minute video sketch of the lithographic printers responsible for a large part of this output. The video was made in collaboration with video artist Smriti Mehra for the City One Minutes art project.
