Dear colleagues,

I'm sending you a message below received from Lance Rutter, director of Chicago International Poster Biennial.

There is only ONE DAY left to support — and save — the only open international poster biennial in the United States.

PLEASE, pledge your support by giving at kickstarter.

…And please, forward to your networks.

Warmest regards,
Francois Caspar

"The beauty of posters lies in the irony that they are often found on the very walls they intend to bring down. It is not their artfulness but their art of provocation that makes them a force. They are a joy to behold, and they are a sword — a tool for both pacifists and warriors. They resonate with a cultural significance that insists to open my mind to the rest of the world. Their visage meets me like a hammer to drive me back, while their sirens’ song draws me close. I hear them, and I am changed. I need them."
Lance Rutter
