WILLIAM WEEGE (1935-2020)
In Every Government on Earth There is Some Trace of Human Weakness. Offset lithograph poster. 590x482 mm; 25x19 inches. Happening Press, San Francisco. 1967.
From a series of peace and protest posters by Weege printed at Happening Press in the late 1960s, these images originally appeared in his portfolio Peace is Patriotic. Weege was a printmaker and artist. He was an MFA student at the University of Wisconsin Madison during the anti-Vietnam war protests that rocked the campus in 1967 - a protest movement that helped define his political work. He represented the United States at the 1970 Venice Biennale.
