Icograda Honours Roy Clucas with Achievement Award
October 6, 2006 | Levent OZLER
On 20 September 2006, Icograda presented Roy Clucas with an Icograda Achievement Award at the first annual think conference held at the University of Johannesburg.
Clucas is one of the iconic figures of design in Africa, who has been an active influence for literally generations of professionals engaged in design, very broadly defined.
In his introduction to Clucas, Icograda President Jacques Lange said.
"The Icograda Achievement Award honours an outstanding career.
On behalf of the local design community, the South African Graphic Design Council (think) put forward this nomination to the Icograda board.
Making the decision to bestow this recognition was easy and it seems particularly appropriate to be making this presentation at an event, hosted by an organisation with which the recipient has close ties since its formation and at a time when the Icograda Board is visiting the country.
While the award is voted on by the executive Board of Directors, it is a celebration by all of our members in 57 countries."
Roy Clucas has been practicing graphic design in South Africa, New York and Paris for nearly 40 years.
His work has represented both small and large companies across a wide spectrum of industries and institutions.
