Another Voice is an exhibition of illustration art produced by editorial artists on assignment throughout my eighteen-year career as art director for The Progressive magazine. The exhibition presents one-hundred and fifty works of art showcasing the art of fifty artists, an elite group of internationally-recognized illustrators. As a form of political expression — “another voice,” expressed in tandem with the text — the content and forthright power of the images often proved to be controversial. Acting from the principle of free speech and insisting on rising above mediocrity, I allowed artists nearly complete freedom for political expression through the art. This collection of art serves as ample evidence of that expression.

— Patrick JB Flynn, curator
