Collection: THE ARCHIVE

The Archive reaches back into the history of political art and visual resistance - Walter Crane's labour movement imagery, suffragette poster art, the Spanish Civil War, May 1968 and beyond. Historical protest art made wearable and liveable for people who understand that the present is always in conversation with the past.

Historical political art prints, activist clothing and protest homeware rooted in the long tradition of radical visual culture. Every piece in the Archive connects to Pen vs Sword Magazine's editorial coverage of the movements and artists who used creativity as a form of resistance.
