Exhibition Label: "Prepared: Strategies for Activists," Apr-2012, Kris Ercums As part of this exhibition students in Michael Krueger’s “Advanced Printmaking Seminar” were asked to think expansively about how to visualize strategies for participating in a protest. These graphics form a triangular lay out on the “pop” tent. From Tahir Square in Egypt, where revolutionaries set up a tent city, to the encampments of Occupy Wall Street in Zuccotti Park, the tent has become emblematic of recent political activity.
