breakdown poster series #2 callout

WANTED: Graphic artists and writers to create poster designs for social change.
SEEKING POSTER DESIGNS ON THE FOLLOWING FASCINATING TOPICS:
  • The Monotony of Growth Society!
  • Consumerism & Corporate Control!
  • Neoliberalism vs Liberalism!
  • Freedom, Hope & Colour!

This poster series hopes to broaden discussion and inspire debate on the issues surrounding global capitalism while the G20 is in town!

The 2006 G20 meeting of finance ministers, reserve bank governors and heads of the World Bank and IMF will take place in Melbourne on November 18-19, 2006. This will be the most significant gathering in Melbourne of people responsible for pushing corporate-led globalisation, neoliberalism and capitalism since the World Economic Forum in 2000 (remember the other S11).

For more information regarding the actions taking place and how to get involved, check out stopg20.org or for the official take, g20.org.

The posters will be launched to coincide with the G20 meeting in Melbourne. We are also encouraging artists and designers to use writing and statistics from academics, historians, poets, activists and song writers in their poster designs.

Unfortunately, artists cannot be paid, but each artist will recieve copies of the publication.

http://www.breakdownpress.org/posters.html is the correct link. Perhaps a quick edit is in order. Thanks for the invite: I'm thinking over something suitably pithy.
