Ten Images for Ithaca in Athens
The ten winning entries of the island of Ithaca's 6th poster competition "Ten Images for Ithaca 2007" with the theme Play, along with 130 finalists, will be exhibited at Fournos-Centre for the digital culture at 168 Mavromichali st., Athens for three days. The exhibition gives design enthusiasts, who didn't make it to Ithaca, a chance to see the results of one of the most substantial poster competitions in Greece.
Ten Images for Ithaca began in 2002 with key objective for young as well as established designers to come into contact with a wider audience. In the 6th competition this year, there were a total of 465 participants with 700 posters from 35 countries.
In the same space, the exhibition "My Favourite Game" will be presented, with posters created by designers from different parts of the world, known mostly for their contemporary progressive style and common work method. These are all designers that more or less work in the outskirts of what we call "experimental design". Free and bold, ready to confound designing facts and conventions, thus creating a team that produces cutting edge design, Xavier Antin, Sara De Bondt, Company, Eric Ellis, Oded Ezer, Jare, Richard Niessen and Andrea Tinnes, all give their personal answer to the theme "My Favourite Game".
Opening: Wednesday 19 September, 21:00
Duration: 19 - 21 September 2007
Operating hours: Wednesday 21:00 - 24:00, Thursday and Friday 19:00 - 24:00
