On Sunday, July 13 at 3pm, Marcy B. Freedman will be at Studio Theater in Exile @ HV MOCA to present a slide show of thought-provoking images of women. Freedman has gathered dozens of print advertisements from the early 20th century to the present day to suggest the dramatic changes in the position of women in society. Her goal is to remind us that we must not take women’s rights for granted, as they are newly won and currently at risk.
Marcy Friedman, Master Art Historian and storyteller takes us into the story and relevance of the images she evokes laughter and groans of recognition e leading us through the images that shaped society and how the society that shaped the images presented in advertising and graphic design. Imaging the lives and roles of women evoked by the images, we may find ourselves shouting, HELL NO, WE WON’T GO BACK!
