WEB POSTER EXHIBITION - Tolerance - a traveling poster project


Text and pictures received from Mirko Ilic


Mirko Ilic in Ljubljana, Slovenia
Mirko Ilic, the well known Bosnian-born artist based in New York City, is running an exciting project on the subject of "Tolerance". It is a traveling exhibition that grows as new posters are added at each location.

Mirko writes

I don’t know if you’re aware but lately I’ve been organizing a traveling Tolerance poster show.
Which so far has been in Slovenia, Montenegro, Sarajevo, Bosnia, and at the end of this month in Serbia, in Holland, Spain, and the United Emirates.

Here is the announcement of the show in Belgrade, Serbia

Below you can read a bit more about the concept of the show and how it was displayed so far.

The show features some work by main designers around the world. With each country the show travels to, one of the most prominent designer from that country is adding a poster on the same subject but as the show continues designers are contributing more work.

The show costs nothing since I send electronic files and they are printed out at the size that is good for available displays. The only requirement is that if it’s possible put some posters — if not all of them on the street/outside so that the citizens and by-passers can see them.

Here are some entries from my blog about the poster show:
Ljubljana, Slovenia
Cetinje, Montenegro
Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina

Mirko Ilic sent 27 posters, I left out the one from Studio New Collectivism, Slovenia, obviously made to test the tolerance of the spectator, showing a horribly disfigured face of a man. I feel under no obligation to show show beheadings, killing of children, bloodbaths and the like on Posterpage.
