The Art of Politics
Art and politics have long history together. So it was with great pleasure that I read about a recent addition to the marriage of creative output and political activism. Art of Politics 2008 is, in their own words, “a political art poster design contest geared to engage youth in art and politics and to inspire and motivate people around the country to become more aware and involved in social, political and environmental issues this election year.” Sweet.
So far poster topic submissions have ranged from political apathy to police brutality. New posters will be posted to the site on a weekly basis through April 30th, 2008 at which time the contest will open on-line people’s-choice style voting. Check it out.
