PH x Teens: Counterculture Collage

Did you know that teens always get free admission into Poster House? In celebration of our new exhibitions Made in Japan and Black Power to Black People, teens are invited to create a counterculture collage on notebooks.

Artists Yokoo Tadanori and Tanaami Keiichi, featured in Made in Japan, and many designers featured in Black Power to Black People contributed to the growing anti-establishment movement of the 60s, known as counterculture, in response to the civil rights movement, anti-war efforts, and anti-censorship movements. These artists utilized collage, digital media, and radical imagery to make bold and progressive demands to change the status quo.

Inspired by their work, teens will design their own radical counterculture message using collage. After they complete their notebooks, teens are encouraged to take what they create into the exhibits to explore.
