Propaganda, instruction, ridicule, holidays by the sea; come and see how posters have held their own over other means of communication throughout the years.
Drawn from the permanent Fine Art collections at Bristol’s City Museum & Art Gallery enjoy examples of 20th century poster advertising tempting you to take the train to the coast; satirical prints in the 18th and 19th centuries that criticised government more strongly than their equivalents today and work by the contemporary print maker Peter Ford and his satires of modern office management.

This exhibition also includes screenprints, woodcuts, a Richard Long mudwork, collage and papermaking, new acquisitions (some of these works have never been displayed before). Everyday material has never been so interesting.
