Flashpoint!, a reading room exhibition focusing on protest photography in print, presents a global selection of photobooks, zines, posters, pamphlets, independent journals and alternative newspapers that address protest and resistance from the 1950s to the present.
Flashpoint! Protest Photography in Print, 1950–Present explores the diverse roles and varying aesthetics that photography in print undertakes in its support of protest and political resistance.
