Finally watching the 24x36 documentary and listening to Mitch Putnam talk around the fact that I built Mondo into what it was when he rolled into the place 4 years after built that poster series into what it was in 2009- it just blows my fucking mind at what a cunt he is.
Doc is pretty great, but I& #39;m shocked at the fact that they& #39;ve gone out of their way to hire almost exclusively white men to do all their poster jobs throughout their entire existence. I& #39;ve hired more women for one poster tour series than they have in their WHOLE HISTORY.
I remember getting laughed at when I made the suggestion we should hire women artists to do posters for films targeted at women back when I was the manager/ art director.
They haven& #39;t changed in the decade plus since I left.
Because I& #39;m also a working artists- & all artists talk to each other- I know that they have actively suppressed and gaslit women artists over the years. It& #39;s some real shit.
I& #39;ve not always been on top of making sure I have a diverse pool of talent- but I& #39;ve tried to correct that
