EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and striking poster from 1936 captures the essence of the New Deal era in American history. Created as part of the Works Progress Administration's Federal Art Project, it aimed to promote safety in the state of Illinois. The bold orange background immediately catches the viewer's attention, while a prominent civil defense symbol takes center stage. The message is clear: "Safety for you, for all". This powerful call to action reflects the government's commitment to protecting its citizens during a time when safety concerns were paramount. The use of silkscreen printing technique adds depth and texture to this piece, enhancing its visual impact. The typography chosen for this poster is simple yet effective, with clean lines that make it easy to read from a distance. It conveys information without overwhelming or distracting from the main message. As we delve into this historical artifact, we are transported back to a time when public art played an integral role in shaping society. This particular print serves as a reminder of how government initiatives sought not only to stimulate economic growth but also prioritize public welfare. Preserved by The Granger Collection, this artwork continues to inspire and educate viewers about an important chapter in American history. Its enduring relevance reminds us that promoting safety and unity remains crucial even today.
