Mass-produced in the second half of the twentieth century, the pin-up posters industry has been massively boosted up via men’s magazines. In his newspaper-sized artist book, Tiane Doan na Champassak mimics the commercial printing process of the 70s and offers a pointillistic reading of an iconic page from the American ‘Penthouse’. ‘All the Posters Fit to Print’ presents a large variety of thumbnails with pin-ups on sale by cropping erratically and blowing up to the maximum, almost to abstraction, 34 tiny provocative vignettes.
