Mike Flugennock

By LatAm ARTE

Mike has been drawing professionally since the age of 18; his more "radical" work first gained notice in the old Yipster Times 'zine in early 1978. In 2000, he helped found the Washington DC Independent Media Center in advance of the Spring 2000 IMF/World Bank mass mobilizations, and served on the DC IMC editorial board from 2005 to 2009. His posters promoting mass protests for peace and social and economic justice have been reproduced and "wheatpasted" widely in North America and Europe, and his editorial work has been featured in The Progressive magazine, Alternative Press Review, and the Washington Post. He has also been profiled and interviewed in the Washington Post, and on RT America television and the "Primo Nutmeg" podcast, and was the subject of a 2015 documentary, "Flugennock".
