First up, long admired political art collective, The Beehive Design Collective, have launched a kickstarter campaign to mark their 10 year anniversary. I remember first seeing their work during the FTAA protests in Quebec City back in 2001, and just recently referenced their work in a class I was teaching as an example of an approach to a visual essay. Check out the video above to learn more about their important and inspirational work, and if you’re in the states, help ’em out so they can keep printing and get yourself some beautiful posters while you’re at it.
