Upcoming Exhibition

The Mark: Graphic Design and Consumer Culture Since 1800

April 1 - May 11, 2024

Through a close look at historical prints and objects, this exhibit traces the evolution of graphic design, telling a story of how trademarks became meaningful symbols of trust and reputation in American consumer culture. In advertisements, package designs, and creative logos, advertising professionals learned to use eye-catching visuals and salient cultural references to speak to the public through print media. In the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, they refined these strategies, helping to create America’s modern consumer society. This exhibit coincides with the publication of Jennifer Black’s book, Branding Trust: Advertising & Trademarks in Nineteenth-Century America (University of Pennsylvania Press, Dec. 2023)

Join us for a reception and exhibition tour as we celebrate the 15th anniversary of the Pauly Friedman Art Gallery on Thursday April 4, 5:30pm. Live piano music by Dean Mastrangelo.
