SUMMARY:Posters That Sing: Notes on Indigenous Poster Design
DESCRIPTION:Indigenous representation in poster history typically focuses on racist depictions leaning on stereotypes and caricatures of Native culture to sell products or events. Alongside this horrific history\, however\, Indigenous poster designers and printers have thrived\, creating a legacy of vibrant\, exciting imagery that counters the dominant narrative. Poster House is pleased to partner with designer and scholar Brian Johnson for a brief survey on this often overlooked body of Indigenous work\, helping expand the cannon of poster history.  \nBrian Johnson is a partner at Polymode\, where he focuses on creative direction\, design production\, writing\, and teaching. Born into a family of printers\, he is deeply invested in the production of good design without sacrificing our humanity or environment. He is a member of the Monacan Nation and holds a BFA from the Rhode Island School of Design. His most recent publication\, Queering the Grid: Reading Codes in Dan Friedman’s Teachings (with Silas Munro)\, has led him to his current design writing research on Friedman’s 1994 Radical Manifesto\, which will be approaching its thirty year anniversary.  \nThis online event will be hosted on Zoom with attendees cameras off. Closed Captioning will be provided. ASL interpretation is available upon request with two weeks notice — please email access@posterhouse.org to request interpretation services. A recording of this event will be made available for all registered attendees. Questions about accessibility? Please contact Sarit Cahana\, Access Coordinator\, at access@posterhouse.org.

SUMMARY:Vignelli vs. Vigilantes/Art vs. Design
DESCRIPTION:In honor of the debut of the exhibition Masked Vigilantes on Silent Motorbikes and the 50th anniversary of what is now commonly referred to as the “Vignelli” subway map\, Poster House is pleased to partner with the New York Transit Museum for a discussion about design in the New York City transit  system and artists’ public interventions. . This panel discussion will include insights from curatorial and artistic perspectives.  \nFirst\, guest curator RJ Rushmore will share some of the public art featured in Masked Vigilantes. Then\, New York Transit Museum curator Jodi Shapiro will discuss the development of the MTA’s iconic visual identity. Finally\, artist Jilly Ballistic will go over her work remixing the MTA’s timeless designs\, as well as other posters found in the subway system\, into new works of art. The program will conclude with a Q&A—questions strongly encouraged!  \nThis program is presented in partnership with the New York Transit Museum. Registration information will be shared with both institutions.  \nJilly Ballistic (she/they) may be considered New York City’s leading subway vandal. Over the last decade\, she has used hundreds of stations\, train cars and advertisements to shine a light on our contemporary political climate and the startling evolution of warfare over the last century. Ballistic has been featured in numerous street art documentaries (“Wild in the Streets\,” Dega Films)\, television series (Canal+\, PBS\, FlowSTATE\, All Arts) and international culture magazines—from AnimalNY\, BuzzFeed\, Hyperallergic\, HUCK and BUST;  \nRJ Rushmore (he/him) is a writer\, curator\, and public art advocate. Working with artists including Shepard Fairey\, Tatyana Fazlalizadeh\, and Jess X. Snow\, RJ builds projects that disrupt visual culture. He is a cofounder of Art in Ad Places\, a guerrilla public art campaign across New York City’s payphones\, and he has curated projects for Poster House\, Mural Arts Philadelphia\, and the Cantor Fitzgerald Gallery at Haverford College. RJ has been called everything from “one of the most respected critics of street and graffiti art in the world” to “petty criminal.” \nJodi Shapiro is a lifelong New Yorker who has worked at the New York Transit Museum since 2014. Prior to becoming the Curator\, she worked in the Museum’s archive (with all the cool photos). She’s curated shows about the Second Avenue Subway\, the IRT Flushing Line\, the Redbird fleet of subway cars\, and the Pullis Brothers. Before she joined the Transit Museum family\, Jodi had many jobs: data wrangler\, record label stooge\, graphic designer\, investigative journalist. The most significant of these was working as an archivist for several artists’ estates\, including a number of world-renown photographers. She holds a Master’s in Library Science\, has way too many cameras\, and fears her enormous LP record collection will be the death of her some day. \n\n\nThis online event will be hosted on Zoom with attendees cameras off. Closed Captioning will be provided. ASL interpretation is available upon request with two weeks notice — please email access@posterhouse.org to request interpretation services. A recording of this event will be made available for all registered attendees. Questions about accessibility? Please contact Sarit Cahana\, Access Coordinator\, at access@posterhouse.org.

SUMMARY:Saying Saree Three Ways
DESCRIPTION:The Maharaja is undoubtedly a fashionable character\, demonstrated perfectly in Poster House’s latest exhibition. Looking beyond illustration\, though\, how does Indian fashion function in the real world? Join fashion scholar Arti Sandhu for this wide-ranging virtual conversation on the history of the saree and contemporary fashion in India. She will discuss the saree as a designer garment\, a mantle for drag\, and the glue that holds social media communities together.  \nArti Sandhu is currently an Associate Professor in the Fashion Program in the School of Design at DAAP\, University of Cincinnati\, USA. Her research is centered on contemporary Indian fashion and related design culture. She is the author of Indian Fashion: Tradition\, Innovation\, Style (Bloomsbury Academic\, 2015). She has also published articles on the contemporary Indian catwalk\, craft and sustainable design practices\, saree groups on social media\, television soap-opera costumes\, and drag queens. Arti is currently working on research projects relating to the growing discourse around decolonizing fashion studies\, the role craft can play in fashioning sustainable design practices\, and an ongoing digital ethnography on social media saree groups. Arti also occasionally writes for the digital fashion magazine The Voice of Fashion. \n\n\nThis online event will be hosted on Zoom with attendees cameras off. Closed Captioning will be provided.

SUMMARY:Saving the Earth...One Poster at a time
DESCRIPTION:Since their creation\, posters have been utilized as a form of instant messaging to communicate ideas to the public quickly. Which makes us wonder\, what can we learn about society by looking at posters as historical artifacts and their documentation of specific issues over time? \nConsider environmentalism\, which became more mainstream in the United States in the 1960s due to publications like Rachel Carson’s “Silent Spring.” What can we learn through the examination of posters from this era? And how has that visual representation shifted as we think about today’s climate change challenges? \nJoin us as climate scientist Abigail Bodner and chief curator of Poster House Angelina Lippert sit down with science communicator and comedian Kyle Marian Viterbo to examine the decades of posters that have cautioned us to take better care of our environment and the underlying story they reveal about the evolving perception of our relationship to these issues. \nThis event is in collaboration with our neighbors at Simons Foundation. \n

SUMMARY:Collaborative Paper Marbling
