Ethel Reed exhibition

Poster House (New York) has an exhibition entitled “Ethel Reed: I Am My Own Property” — curated by Angelina Lippert — that will run through 21 August 2022. Lippert writes on the exhibition website: “While contemporary critics have often dismissed her work as cheerful fluff and her talent as less notable than that of her male counterparts, both news articles of the time and her personal correspondence reveal a heavily autobiographical, oftentimes dark and defiant, thread running through her illustrations.”

For an interview with Lippert by Steven Heller, accompanied by many illustrations, see The Daily Heller: Ethel Reed, Poster Woman.
