Skol invites Feminist artists to redesign their posters

Many companies have shown their support for women’s rights and their support for equality between the sexes. However, as they set up new campaigns supporting this, most brands do not eliminate their past campaigns containing contrary messages. The Brazilian beer brand Skol has taken this step, inviting feminist artists to re-design their old posters that portrayed women wearing bikinis and serving beer to men. After the re-design the posters changed drastically by showing domain from women drinking a cold beer and transmitting their unique power and strength.

Fairey posters removed from High School

Remember the “We the People” posters campaign from Shepard Fairey that he used to protest at the Woman’s March? They were hung up at Westminster High School and the Maryland High School in Carroll County, with the purpose of symbolising equality, but unfortunately not everyone felt the same way. Apparently, some people thought that the posters were meant to show an opposition against Trump’s campaign, that therefore they should be removed, since teachers shouldn’t influence the student’s political choices. The decision was taken even though it was clarified that this was not their intention. Instead students were allowed to wear them as t-shirts and bring them to school.

Feminist Posters

In 1974, a group of students joined together to incorporate their creative skills to fight against the sexist and negative imagery of women in the media. They later created the See Red Women’s Workshop which soon would develop its own brand of revolutionary expression and fighting for women justice through design. Identity, sexuality and women’s liberation are the main themes represented on their posters and illustrations.

See Red Women’s Workshop: Feminist Posters 1974-1990 is a new book published by Four Corners Books that brings together a collection of posters into a catalogue of powerful imagery. Check out some of this stunning posters that will give chills with their mighty message.
