Interdisciplinary artist and social justice activist Favianna Rodriguez hosts an intimate political poster making workshop that illuminates the form’s legacy as an expression of social activism. Organized by Enrique Chagoya and Rodriguez in tandem with his own work on view in What is an edition, anyway?, the workshop references posters’ primacy in the earlier stages of political movements—such as the Mexican, Soviet, and Cuban Revolutions—before those same practices became part of propagandistic strategies in the same countries.
