Competition poster by Felix Pfaeffli
International poster contest and free public exhibition
There has rarely been a time that was faster or more exciting than ours. We are experiencing extreme sensory overload, as around the world events are happening that attract our attention. Events that make you think. Events that make you angry. Events that divide us – or unite us under one cause. But what can we do in a world where people are becoming increasingly indifferent? What can we do if abuses of power have become universally accepted, almost uncritically? What can we do if citizens get lost in their lethargy and apparent paralysis instead of getting informed and questioning what is happening around them? Open their eyes! With posters that speak out, that encourage people to start thinking about what they’re seeing.
What issues matter most to you?
What gets you boiling with anger?
And what needs to be looked at urgently?
