May 68: Street Posters from the Paris Rebellion
From Thursday 1st May to Sunday 1st June 2008 at the Hayward Gallery (Southbank Centre)
The posters of the Paris uprising of May 1968 comprise some of the most brilliant graphic works ever to have been associated with a movement for social and political change. This selection of original posters coincides with The Hayward’s 40th birthday and celebrates the vibrant activist graphics and revolutionary spirit of summer 1968.
The exhibition is curated by Johan Kugelberg in collaboration with The Hayward curatorial team and Jeff Boardman, Creative Director of Freewheelin’.
Supported by Converse with additional support from the New York Herald Tribune and Time Out.
To complement this exhibition, Magnum Photos present a projection of photographs by Bruno Barbey, whose record of the Paris riots produced some of the most iconic images from that year.
