"Dwan Gallery Poster" is a 1965 print by American artist Robert Rauschenberg. Executed as a color offset lithograph on off-white wove paper, the work measures 56 by 62 cm at the image level and 58.1 by 63.2 cm for the entire sheet.
The composition features a multi-layered, collage-style arrangement framed within a prominent square outline. It incorporates disparate visual elements, including photographic halftone imagery depicting a person's portrait, an isolated human ear, textured paper fragments, and gestural marks. The imagery is primarily rendered in monochrome black and grayscale, accented by areas of color including yellow, red, and blue blocks, alongside muted tones and sketchy linear motifs that extend slightly beyond the main boundary lines.
