MEGALOMANIA

Megalomania: 33 years of posters made at Megalo Print Studio 1980 -2013, is a visual record of community action, recorded in screen printed posters and produced in Canberra. Sourced from the Megalo archive of over 500 posters, Megalomania is an amazing pictorial record of life in the national capital of Australia. Professionally speaking, Chris Wallace kicks with both feet—a political journalist, biographer and historian, and at the same time a cultural journalist, artist and arts activist. Megalo, of which she is a board member, engages both sides.
