Dedicated to critical cultural production at the intersection of art and activism.

We cover artists from around the globe whose work explores and realizes social change. Our goal is to provide a narrative about these activist efforts while simultaneously participating in them. Maintained by The Groundswell Collective since 2007.

Groundswell Collaboration with Artists At War, Round One

Part one of our collaboration with Artists At War is now available for download.  Below are two new posters that deal with privacy in our increasingly surveilled state, and are (in part) a reaction to the preemptive raids on activists at the RNC.

Three hundred of the posters were distributed earlier this week, and some promised to put them to tactical use.

These were designed to be installed in a pattern, and though we’ve yet to try it, the idea was to display the security cameras in 3D.  Each poster is sized 11×17″ – click the images above for a free PDF download!
