UC San Diego University Art Gallery - Mandeville Center Reclaim! Remain! Rebuild! Posters on Affordable Housing, Gentrification & Resistance Gallery Hours: Mondays and Wednesdays 12 – 4 p.m. and Tuesdays and Fridays 2 – 6 p.m. - Special Hours: Saturday March 2nd 2019 From 2pm to 6pm Contact iah@ucsd.edu for more information about this exhibition. This exhibit illustrates how gentrification and the lack of affordable housing are creating life-threatening conditions throughout the world—and posters are key for organizing resistance. They announce demonstrations, oppose demolitions, protest restrictive covenants, recruit for tenants unions, and support squatters’ rights to move into abandoned buildings. Powerful graphics document victories and ongoing confrontations. And whether the residents win or lose, they become empowered in the process of fighting for the stability of their communities—and the posters record their struggle and their empowerment. Produced by the Center for the Study of Political Graphics Los Angeles, CA The exhibition will be open to the public Feb. 4 – March 15; Read more: https://ucsdnews.ucsd.edu/feature/institute-of-arts-and-humanities-receives-california-humanities-grant-for-community-conversations
