Vive Revolutionaries with good handbags!

2008! Its the 40th anniversary of the May 68 uprising in France, an event forever romanticized and fetished in fashion (Ms Prada), film (Bertolucci's "The Dreamers") and music (check Pet Shop Boys "I'm Not Scared"..the crowd noises at the end are a tribute to Mai 68). The Hayward Gallery is exhibiting a collection of posters curated by Johan Kugelberg and Jeff Boardman of original posters from the uprising.
40 of the stunning graphic works have been reproduced into a limited edition poster book and each page of the hand pulled screen-printed reproductions been perforated along the edge for easy removal and framing (only 68 books are being published).
