Closing Week: Women’s Rights Are Human Rights: International Posters on Gender-Based Inequality, Violence, and Discrimination
The Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art is proud to present Women’s Rights are Human Rights: International Posters on Gender-Based Inequality, Violence, and Discrimination. Curated by Elizabeth Resnick (Professor Emerita, Graphic Design, Massachusetts College of Art and Design), this exhibition draws on decades of design practice from around the globe to demand equity and dignity for all.
Taking her title from both the women’s rights movement and an important 1995 speech by Hillary Rodham Clinton, Resnick explains, “This exhibition features posters that celebrate the vital role everyone should play in protecting and promoting human rights while actively challenging gender inequality and stereotypes, advancing sexual and reproductive rights, and protecting women and girls against brutality."
Runs through May 17.
