WE THE DESIGNERS: Reframing political issues in the Obama era [exhibition]

Exhibition:
September 29–December 15, 2011

Reception:
Wednesday, October 5, 2011
5:30–7:30

Politicians, journalists and pundits use language. Graphic designers use visual language. Drawing on two realms, designers unite visual and verbal content in compelling communication. In a divisive era, when words alone have not been enough, can the power of design help unite citizens on the issues?

We the Designers is a national exhibition of self-authored graphic design curated by professor Thomas Starr. Consisting of both newly created and previously published work, participating designers wield opinion and analysis to inform and persuade about the unique issues facing the Obama administration.

Free and open to public.
