EDITORS COMMENTS
This poster announces an exhibition of artworks created through the Illinois Federal Art Project of the Works Progress Administration (WPA), held at the Federal Art Gallery in New York City between 1936 and 1938. The WPA was a New Deal program designed to provide employment and financial assistance to artists, writers, and other creative professionals during the Great Depression. The Federal Art Project, a division of the WPA, supported the production of public art and art education, and this exhibition showcased the exceptional talent and creativity that emerged from the Illinois chapter of the project. The poster's bold design features a dynamic collage of abstract and representational artworks, each one a testament to the diverse artistic styles and techniques that flourished during this period. The use of vibrant colors, bold typography, and dynamic compositions reflects the energy and innovation of the art world during the 1930s. The exhibition offered the public an opportunity to engage with the art of their time and place, and to witness the transformative power of art in uplifting the spirit and fostering community during a time of great economic hardship. This poster serves as a reminder of the enduring impact of the WPA and the Illinois Federal Art Project on American art history and cultural heritage.
