Agitate! Educate! Organize! Agit Prop into the 21st Century
Tuesday, June 12, 2018 - Sunday, September 30, 2018
Exhibition Dates: June 12 -- September 30, 2018 Exhibition Opening: Tuesday, June 12, 6-9pm Our daily lives are saturated with information; we consume supposedly “neutral” media that implicitly supports existing power structures, yet we simultaneously fear “fake news” without critically analyzing the truths and biases that coexist in every message we see or hear. The reality is that all media has an agenda: for hundreds of years, people have used art, culture, graphics, performance, and design as central elements of social and political organizing across all realms of the political spectrum, to spread information and reimagine reality. This exhibition reflects historic and current uses of agitprop, or agitational propaganda, at the intersection of design and political organizing.
