How are exhibitions created? Join Poster House Executive Director & Curator Angelina Lippert in conversation with curator Tim Medland to discuss how they worked together to build the acclaimed show, We Tried to Warn You! Environmental Crisis Posters, 1970-2020. From exhibition concept to poster selection, restoration and preservation to maintaining an institutional voice, they’ll break down how it takes a village to build a Poster House show. Through this framework, they’ll also touch on the ways these posters highlight diverse environmental issues from around the world over the past 50 years.
