Presented by the USF Contemporary Art Museum and the USF Center for Sustainable Democracy
Featuring artists Antoni Muntadas and Marshall Reese.

On Wednesday, October 16, 2024, the USF Contemporary Art Museum will screen the 11th edition of a four-decade long collaboration between Muntadas and Reese called Political Advertisement 1952-2024.

For 40 years, Antoni Muntadas and Marshall Reese have been compiling a video history of presidential campaign spots that follows the evolution of political advertising from its beginnings in 1952 to the present. The feature length video is an engaging critique, without voiceover commentary, highlighting how campaign ads manipulate public perception and affect voter behavior.

Following the screening, Christian Viveros-Fauné, CAM Curator at Large, will moderate a conversation between artists Antoni Muntadas and Marshall Reese and Joshua Scacco, Director of USF’s Center for Sustainable Democracy and Associate Professor & Associate Chair in the Department of Communication.
