Seeing Red at the Pegge Hopper Gallery
Thursday, September 28. Public posters were at one time a dominant means of communication. They were tools for conveying information, then advertising, and beginning in World War I, propaganda. “Seeing Red,” an exhibit now at the Pegge Hopper Gallery in Honolulu, shows the impact they continue to possess. HPR’s Noe Tanigawa reports. | “Seeing Red: 35 Designers Confront Contemporary Issues” runs through October at the Pegge Hopper Gallery on Nu`uanu Avenue downtown. A companion exhibit next door features poster art by students of Le Jardin Academy. For information on the project, check www.seeing-red.net. Runs: 3:24
