The AC Institute Presents

OCCUPY THE WALLS: A Poster Show

Curated by performance artist and musician Holly Anderson and poet and activist Jeffrey Cyphers Wright

December 8 – December 16, 2011 Opening Event: Thursday, December 8, 2011 6-8pm

Exhibitions are free and open to the public.

Art heeds the clarion call of the Occupy Wall Street movement at the AC Institute. This special show of posters is dedicated to the spirit evinced by the patriots at Liberty Square. Original, commissioned artwork will be shown beside authentic posters from the protest and will be on view for one week.

In addition to an opening there will be a poetry reading and performance (Date to be Announced.) The artists will then take their artwork to Liberty Square to demonstrate. This effort will be made into a film.

You can participate in this exhibition by bringing your poster to the AC Institute on December 6 and Wednesday, December 7 between 1 and 6pm. Submissions may be mailed to the AC Institute or emailed in PDF to [email protected] if received before Dec. 7.

The AC Institute reserves the right to disqualify submissions.
