Ecole des Beaux-Arts transformed itself into a political poster printer amidst the May 1968 protests in France. Mai 68 was a significant period of social unrest for students and the working class under Charles de Gaulle's administration. These protestors designed and utilized bold and simple posters to galvanize support, as exemplified here.
