Hi Dan
It' s a wonderful surprise to see this poster on your web site, I did it long time ago and i have no exemplar of it .
I 'm a french artist ,and I was politically engage for freedom of the people of the world . In 1974 I met Ezzedine Kalak representative of Palestine in France, we became friends and he asked me to do many posters ,if you want I can send you some photos of them.
I join you a picture of me with Leila Shahid( the envoy the Palestinian Authority (PA) to the European Commission in Brussel) behind one of my poster , in 2008 in Mons , Belgium, for a palestinian poster show .
Congratulation for your work , it's just amazing what you did!
if you need anything tell me I'll do my best to help you.
Sincerely
Claude Lazar

Hello Claude,
My name is Dan Walsh... I am at Georgetown University writing my thesis on Palestinian poster art.
You can view almost 2, 000 Palestine posters at my site:
www.palestineposterproject.org
I am writing to ask if you are the Claude Lazar who created this poster:

If you are the artist, may I write to you with some questions about the poster?
Many thanks,
Dan

Hello Jean-Claude,
My name is Dan Walsh and I learned of atelier des clots from Claude Lazar.
I have a site dedicated to the posters of Palestine:
www.palestineposterproject.org
Claude has a Special Collection at the site as well:
http://www.palestineposterproject.org/category/special-collection/claude...
Did atelier des clots do any other Palestine posters?
Do you know of any other artists/collectives/organizations that are or were active publishing Palestine posters?
I went through the poster gallery at your site...great graphics. Timeless!
in solidarity,
Dan Walsh
