Tender for the graphic12
Graphic design is becoming a creative mass phenomenon due to the increasing digitalization and popularity of online media. 100 selected graphic designers and illustrators present their favorite works from 2011 at Grafik12.
"Switzerland has an excellent international reputation in the field of graphic design and typography with an interface to art. This is partly thanks to the Swiss education system in the creative industries sector. Even before we sent out the invitation to over 8,000 potential exhibitors, there were already a number of interested parties. We are expecting a large number of applications," says Harun Dogan, Artistic Director of Grafik12, explaining why the Swiss graphics scene has been an international leader for decades. Interested graphic artists and illustrators - professionals, amateurs or students - are invited to submit their portfolios via www.grafik12.ch to apply. It is up to the exhibitors themselves whether the works are two- or three-dimensional. The only limit is a polystyrene cube on which the works are presented and which is the same size for all exhibitors. The registration deadline is January 21, 2012, but will be extended until February 5, 2012.
Grafik12 will take place from March 2-4, 2012 in the Maag Halle.
