Grace Jones: Saturday Morning Action

Coming soon

Archive note

Promotional poster for a fictional Grace Jones action series broadcast by Tokyo Broadcasting in the 1980s, positioning the Jamaican-American musician and performer as a spy-thriller protagonist. The design merges pop-art portraiture with manga-influenced panel layout, suggesting a co-production that never materialized between Japanese and American networks. Red halftone face, purple geometric makeup, red spy car: the visual language conflates Jones' avant-garde persona with James Bond iconography. Archive note suggests this was a lost pitch document, circulated among executives but ultimately abandoned.

Catalogued, not yet released. This artifact will become available to acquire soon.

One artifact. One owner. On acquisition it is permanently retired from the archive. You receive the high-resolution file and a signed certificate of exclusivity.
