EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative poster announces the Exhibition of WPA Connecticut Artists held at the Federal Art Gallery in Boston from 1936 to 1939. The Work Progress Administration (WPA) was a New Deal program established to provide employment opportunities for artists, writers, and other creative professionals during the Great Depression. This exhibition showcased the works of Connecticut-based artists who had been supported by the WPA. The poster's design features a tree stem adorned with leaves, symbolizing growth and renewal. The Progress Administration's influence is evident in the modernist typography and bold colors that capture the attention of passersby. The poster's simple yet effective design effectively conveys the message of the exhibition and the spirit of the times. The WPA Connecticut Artists Exhibition was an essential part of the broader Federal Art Project, which aimed to promote American art and artists. The project provided a platform for artists to create and exhibit their works, giving them much-needed financial support and recognition during a time of economic hardship. The exhibition also played a crucial role in promoting the arts and fostering a sense of community and cultural progress. This poster is a testament to the enduring power of art to inspire and uplift, even in the most challenging of times. It serves as a reminder of the important role that government-funded arts programs can play in supporting artists and enriching our cultural landscape.
