Product Description
Synopsis
"Unban the ANC", "Stop Evictions", "Free Mandela", "Troops out of the Townships!". The images of a people demanding their freedom feature in this collection of posters. Popular struggles around the world have given rise to artforms of their own. They tell of massive struggles against repression and domination. Their vibrant colours and direct images reflect the conditions under which the posters were produced - and often give a sense of the people who produced them. This work documents the history of 1980s South Africa and the people who, in the face of great odds, made their claim on its future. Nelson Mandela contributes the foreword, and the afterword is provided by Dikobe wa Mogale Ben Martins.
