A century ago, during World War One, the poster was the most potent weapon in the global propaganda war. In the critical struggle to win hearts and minds, the powerful, motivating concepts envisioned by designers ultimately translated into victory on the battlefield. 

Join guest speaker Tom Laemlein for a presentation and visual exploration of the political propaganda posters of World War One (1914-1918) in commemoration of its 100th anniversary. Presented by the Art Department with support from the Faculty Lecture, Film, & Associates Committee.
