The Political Circus, Political Sideshow, and Political Pandemonium collections focus on the Presidential Campaigns of 2008, 2016, and 2020, where identity has played a part in the rhetoric of some candidates but more so in some of the general public's responses to various candidates. Through the acquisition of popular consumer items and material culture produced for the Presidential campaigns, Dr. Caputi organized three exhibitions teasing out issues concentrated on gender, racism, identity, class, and sexuality. The Political Pandemonium Collection highlights the 2020 presidential election cycle. The items include traditional campaign memorabilia such as buttons and posters, to more contemporary objects (realia). These pieces were central components of the exhibition, POLITICAL PANDEMONIUM Presidential Pop Culture From 2008 Through 2020 that ran from October 1, 2020 - January 15, 2021 at Florida Atlantic University's Ritter Gallery. The exhibition examined stereotypes and prejudices in politics through a collection of everyday consumer objects that became propaganda items to compliment or critique candidates. The collection's items interrogate issues like misogyny, feminism, gender, patriotism, sexism, class, violence, and ageism.
