Hearts and minds: wartime propaganda
Posters were an ideal means of communicating propaganda: impermanent yet public, they were designed to be noticed, and could be printed and distributed quickly in large numbers. The Memorial holds a large collection of wartime posters. Hearts and minds: wartime propaganda introduces this collection, featuring home-front propaganda from the First and Second World Wars.
Showing from 1 August - 28 September 2019
Whitehorse Artspace, Box Hill, Vic
