Posters Fo’ Sho’ is an exhibition exploring the poster as both art-form and advert. Curators Luke Drozd and Eva Rowson (38b), at the invitation of Mike Murphy & Kelly O’Connor (Five Years), asked artists, designers and makers to create a poster which serves to both form the shows body of work as well as the tool with which to promote it.
