Kicking off a week of focus on protest posters, this 1990 screenprint by Swiss designer Hans-Rudolf Lutz for the Concrete Utopias in Art and Society exhibition at Museum für Gestaltung, Zürich features an enlarged block of handwriting running across the giant number “68,” a symbol for the student uprisings in Paris that defined a generation of artistic, political, and intellectual opposition. The handwritten text, taken from a historic poster from the May 1968 uprising, parses the French verb participer (to participate). For more books on poster design, see Avery Lozada's Staff Picks. ![How Posters Work](https://s.turbifycdn.com/aah/artbook/how-posters-work-366.jpg) Cooper Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum Hbk, 9.5 x 9 in. / 208 pgs / 300 color.
