About this artwork

Projects Projects uses progressive modes of visual communication to produce wide-ranging graphic media, from books to brand identities. On display is the reissue of an out-of-print 1970 publication, Blueprint for Counter Education, which proposes a new model of participatory education grounded in radical discourse and artistic practice. This version faithfully re-creates the original box set (which, in addition to the book, included three posters and the instructional book Shooting Script) as well as a new booklet with essays reflecting on the history of the subversive project.
