An exhibition exploring love, loss and how words, imagery and lettering can work together in poster art.
Gabrielle Rish’s inspiration for Middles, Endings and Beginnings ranges from the calligraphy of classical Chinese poets to the one-time pop culture phenomenon, Desiderata. This obscure early 20th century inspirational poem had a spectacular resurrection 40 years later when someone printed it on a poster. Desiderata went on to adorn millions of office, bedroom and toilet walls world-wide.
Content Warning : This exhibition contains images of illegal drug use and themes of death and addiction.
