ANTI-ADVERTISING CONFERENCE
I’m going to be doing a talk/workshop called ‘The art of parody — what makes a good satirical poster?’ at the UK’s first anti-advertising conference bringing together activists, artists, planners and community campaigners, in Bristol next month. The workshop will be alongside Matt Bonner of Revolt Design, who’s behind a ton of great activist art & design including maybe most famously the Trump Baby balloon. There’s loads of other brilliant talks on the day, for the full program and how to attend click the link below, also check the FB event. Fighting for Ad-free Cities // Sat 26th October // 2019.
