Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Subversive and incendiary, this full-color poster book reworks classic war propaganda to comment on corporate corruption, domestic spying, election fraud, gay marriage, blind patriotism, the "War on Terror," and surveillance in America today.

With laughs and jeers, Wrights distinctive artwork and astute political commentary offers timely and clever insight into the state of post-9/11 America. Surveillance Means Security! is the hilarious follow-up to Wrights previous books of reworked propaganda posters, You Back The Attack! Well Bomb Who We Want! and If You're Not A Terrorist ...Then Stop Asking Questions.

Synopsis:

A must-have for art collectors and rabble-rousers alike.

Kevin66, December 31, 2006 (view all comments by Kevin66)
This book is both hilarious and thoughtful. 50 full-color "modern propaganda" posters which come "from" the Bush Administration and attempt to sway Americans to support illegal wiretaps, torture, war, etc. Each poster is accompanied by a well-written essay summing up the salient points of the issue and devastating Bush's legal reasoning and excuses for his positions. Highly recommended.
