Picturing Propaganda: A Study Day
Sat 1 Jun 2013, 10.00-16.30
Conference Centre, British Library
£25 / £15 concessions

Effective propaganda relies as much on images as it does on words. This study day will explore the role of visual communication in influencing ideas and changing behaviour. Academics and curators will discuss the history of visual propaganda, using fascinating (and sometimes funny) examples from the British Library and British Film Institute collections. The event is aimed at students, researchers and anyone with an interest in 20th century history, design, film or communication studies. Entry to the exhibition is included in the price.
In collaboration with the BFI
