Poster Project

‘On the Western Window Pane’ was a year long project organised by the Van Gogh House, from 1st April 2021 to 31st March 2022, presenting 12 artist designed posters in its front, west facing window. Envisaged as a simple but direct way of making the house accessible to the public, artists were invited to create posters drawing out the many-layered narratives from the building’s remarkable history. Each artist has taken their own approach to topics ranging from domesticity and mental health to coming-of-age and unionism.

All funds raised will be shared with the artists involved as well as towards funding residencies for emerging artists, running education projects, maintaining the house’s historic fabric and staging exhibitions.
