20th Bienal Poster
This was the poster that most clearly showed that the project of Modemism had been surpassed. It was controversial and produced a strong and memorable image. It had the code of Brazilianess - the ever-present banana - and the irreverence of art - the banana is associated with a gesture of subversion. This image was immediately accessible to the public, as was appropriate for a Bienal that was beginning to draw a mass audience. ln spite of critics at the time rejecting the piece and seeing the banana as a stereotyped image of Brazilianness, this was one of the most frequently remembered Bienal posters. Bienal 50 Anos, 1951-2001, 2001, p.303

Tarefa a cargo do cartunista Ziraldo e homenagem da Bienal ao mesmo, que, por sua vez, não cobrou pela obra, o cartaz da mostra Terra de Ninguém fez alusão aos mapeamentos geográficos propostos pela curadoria de Alfons Hug. Tendo em conta a diversidade e miscigenação brasileiras, a peça apresenta uma variedade dos 143 tons diferentes de pele existentes no país.
