Live Class: June 19th 6-7:45pm EST I 5-6:45pm CST | 3-4:45pm PST
Join us on Saturday, October 18, from 3:00 – 4:45 PM EST | 2:00 – 3:45 PM CST | 12:00 – 1:45 PM PST for our next Special Topics lecture with José Ato Menéndez and Tatiana Gómez Gaggero from Gráfica Latina in Conversation with Incomplete Latinx Stories of Diseño Gráfico facilitator Ramon Tejada.

The poster, in all its expansive forms, en América Latina holds a vaunted position in the graphic production from the continent. Latin American posters designed throughout the 20th & 21st centuries speak about the cultural, social, economic, and political contexts in which they were—or/and still are—created from Patagonia to the Andes, Central America, the Caribbean, and North America. Using Gráfica Latina’s emerging archive and the recent Graphic Voices of Latin America exhibition, we take a look at some of the key moves that have emerged throughout the continent and that have created a rich and varied body of work that speaks to the rich diversity of design on the continent.
