Grace Jones: Saturday Morning Action
Coming soonArchive 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.
