Breakdown Press
Breakdown Poster Series #2
$5

A powerful collection of posters by artists, designers and writers breaking down corporate-led globalisation and celebrating creative dissent. Breakdown Poster Series #2 features work from individual artists and arts collectives, from Australia, Indonesia and North America. These artists have used embroidery, woodcuts, illustration, collage, computer-generated trickery, cut ʻn paste, screen printing and scratchboard techniques in producing their newsprint poster designs.

At a time when the role of creative activism is as vital as ever, these posters help to breakdown feelings of despair, analyze corporate agendas and provide some hope in a increasingly concreted and controlled world. These posters were published by Breakdown Press in Melbourne November 2006, to coincide with the G20 Summit and the Carnival against Capitalism protests.
