A virtual gallery of Star Wars political art (part 1)

As I’ve come across them, I’ve been posting examples of Star Wars-inspired political art on Instagram (@michaelharrisbooks). In this post and the next few posts I’ll republish some of my favourites. If you’ve seen other examples (or can help with some of the artist attributions I haven’t been able to find), do let me know!

Cedric Delsaux, from his Dark Lens series.

The Dark Side of Liberty Darth Vader t-shirt by Allriot

Orlando Arocena makes the link between the saga and the Vietnam War by echoing the posters for Stanley Kubrick's 1987 movie Full Metal Jacket.

More examples of Star Wars political art in the next post.
