Robert DePietro • Roger Fenton

Recently, Robert De Pietro and Daniel Strebin co-curated a critically respected exhibition of the works of poster, corporate, and film-title designer Saul Bass at the Hollywood Entertainment Museum.

Daniel Strebin: Has viewed and studied over 20,000 classic films of the great directors of world cinema, and for 30 years has collected the finest and most unique original posters to supplement his addiction to film history.

Along the way, he couldn't resist the temptations of a wide variety of other graphic arts, assembling a serious collection of artist's exhibition posters, small works like "maitre de l'affiche", and black and white photographs, all of which will eventually work their way into the gallery.

He has been called upon to consult all the major film poster auction houses, and to appraise several large and historically significant collections, both private and institutional.

Jason Vass: Has been collecting all types of graphic art, especially vintage posters for 20 years.

His storehouse contains thousands of original examples of the best in classic posters and other works of art on paper.

After eight years of prior experience running Jason Vass Gallery in Santa Monica, California, he closed the gallery to assume a paid consultant's position at a leading auction house.

Robert DePietro: Was awarded an MFA in film studies from NYU, and was for many years a leading vintage 16mm and 35mm film dealer.

He helped build some of the world's most comprehensive private and archival collections of original films.

Having fallen in love with posters along the way, he eventually left film dealing behind to focus strictly on locating and promoting the original posters for many of those same films.

After many years in the field he has created a deep reservoir of vintage material which Folio Gallery may draw upon for years to come.

Roger Fenton: Is a fulltime assistant film editor who has worked on the series Nip and Tuck, as well as such films as The Fugitive, The Usual Suspects, and X-Men II among others.

For over 20 years he has been a fulltime film poster connoisseur, and at one time owned one of the largest private collections of the full spectrum of film history as seen thru its poster publicity.

He brings an experienced collector's eye to the Folio Gallery collection.
