First European youth poster competition on a socio-political topic, Poster Festival Ljubljana, was established in 2009 to communicate to a global audience important messages through the medium of posters. The 1st festival on the topic of Climate Change took place in May 2009, consisting of several events: Competition in poster design, Workshop for students, Eco debate and two main exhibitions: Masterpieces, exhibition of posters with various social-political contents by internationally acclaimed masters, and Coexistence, a traveling exhibition from Poland.


Programme

Workshop

The main aim of the Workshop, hosted by internationally acclaimed design experts, is to facilitate mutual cooperation of young artists from different cultural backgrounds, who create visually clear and provocative messages for the general public and decision makers in environmental issues. All created posters become a courtesy of Brumen Foundation; they are displayed at the exhibition, presented in the catalogue and Festival's web gallery, where they are available to non-government/government EU institutions for only transmission costs. The first Workshop was attended by ninety students and was implemented under the guidance of Bruketa&Žinić, Jason Grant, Čedomir Kostović, Alain Le Quernec, Filip Pagowski and Annik Troxler. The prizes were awarded by an international jury composed of Dimitris Arvanitis, Anthon Beeke, Anette Lenz, Piotr Młodozeniec and Bruno Monguzzi; the exhibition was open to visitors at the Jakopič Gallery.

Competition

The goal of the international competition of young designers under 35 years of age is to raise awareness and to spread the knowledge about important social topics. The first Competition on the topic of Climate Change resulted in a catalogue and the exhibition, held at the Jakopič Gallery. The international jury, comprising: Ivan Doroghy, Marjatta Itkonen, Radovan jenko, Cyprian Koscielniak and Mieczyslaw Wasilewski chose 125 works from 516 of submitted works.
