political posters
Electoral visual advocacy
Political posters are printed materials designed to promote candidates, parties, causes, or movements.
They range from simple yard signs to elaborate propaganda art.
Campaign posters typically feature a candidate's face and slogan: Obama's "Hope" poster became iconic.
Protest posters may appear at rallies or wheat-pasted on walls.
The form has produced memorable graphic design, from Soviet constructivism to Shepard Fairey's street art aesthetic.
