The New Deal: Art Relief

Currently on view at Florida International University’s The Wolfsonian, visitors will find four ongoing exhibitions. Posters highlighting fellowship across race, nationality, and sexual orientation regarding HIV/AIDS are included in “You, Me, We, Us: Solidarity in AIDS Graphic Design.” “Color and Form: American Depression Glass” offers a study of mass-produced glassware made between the 1930s—1950s. An original manuscript of linoleum-cut prints depicting the story of the Scottsboro Boys’ and other articles surrounding the ongoing fight for civil rights is the focal point of “Art for Justice.” And finally, “The New Deal: Art Relief” is a visual compilation of artwork made following the Works Progress Administration, like murals for prison walls and advertisements for national parks.
