“Campaign Buttons” at Miller Block

Here are some samples of “Campaign Buttons: Artists Speak Out!” at Boston's Miller Block Gallery.

Over the summer Ellen Miller invited local artists to design and decorate politically-themed buttons. The result is an art community party game, a light lark. The artists – surprise – are heavily in favor of Obama and voting and, uh, breasts, and critical of McCain.

“Campaign Buttons: Artists Speak Out!” Miller Block Gallery, 38 Newbury St., Boston, Sept. 5 to Oct. 11, 2008.
