2nd International Computer Generated Design Ex-libris Competition 2006The International Federation of Ex-libris Societies has decided at its XXXth Congress in July 2004 to formally endorse the organising of this 2nd international competition of computer-generated ex-libris.
The 1th competition was an overwelming succes: 350 artists from 34 countries did send 1191 bookplates of excellent quality.
Many young people have participated.
The computer, as an artist's creative tool, is steadily gaining ground.
Images made using this technique however are sometimes considered of a lesser artistic and printing quality than that of traditionally-made graphic art prints, particularly in the small-format applied arts field of ex-libris.
This competition is organised to give artists the possibility to show that digital technology can be used as brilliantly as the burin or engraving needle to produce 'art jewels on paper'.
It will also enable them to demonstrate how classical techniques can be brought in to support digital technology.
