Poster competition: "Zuger Chriesiwurst" wins international award
The «Zuger Chriesiwurst» poster was named one of the 100 best posters from 2010 in Germany, Switzerland, and Austria. A total of 518 organizations, companies, and graphic designers submitted posters for the competition.
Of the 100 winning posters, 53 came from Germany, 45 from Switzerland and 2 from Austria. As the poster designers DNS-Transport Zug announced on Thursday, 1600 posters took part in the competition. From June 2011, the winning motifs will be on display in Berlin D, Essen D, Nuremberg D, Dornbirn A, Lucerne CH and Vienna A.
The "Zuger Chriesiwurst" poster shows the sausage, which was created in 2009 as a new Zug specialty, on a light blue background. The whole poster is reminiscent of advertising from the 1960s. It was designed by DNS-Transport Zug (Ueli Kleeb, Caroline Lötscher) and the "inventor" of the sausage, Zug butcher Marcel Rinderli.
