Here is a poster called 'Banned 1970' advertising a new exhibition at our local town museum. Here are the details of the exhibition.
‘Banned’- An exhibition exploring Outsider Art
From Saturday 4th February there will be a display of never before seen posters designed and hand-painted by Edwin F. Harris in the 1960s and 70s.
Mr Harris held very strong views on a number of controversial subjects such as hunting and animal testing, and many of his posters have a strong religious theme.
Painted in often garish colours to emphasise his feelings, the posters are very graphic and often quite disturbing, and whilst a challenging exhibition to view, it will no doubt generate lots of interesting discussion.
