Greenpeace Design Awards

Greenpeace Design Awards

The concept of the "Greenpeace Design Awards" was originally developed by Gjoko Muratovski in conjunction with Greenpeace Australia Pacific, and managed together with Greenpeace International, School of Art, Architecture and Design (University of South Australia), UniLife Inc, and the Kerry Packer Civic Gallery.

The international poster design competition was launched on 1 March 2009, and within months attracted the participation of over 1500 creatives from 77 countries. The Awards are an extension of the Greenpeace ‘brand’ and they have established a new link between Greenpeace and the global creative community. The Awards had an international judging panel that consisted of wide range of industry professionals and academics.

The iconic "Ape Guevara" poster for the "Greenpeace Design Awards" was designed by the Greenpeace Design Awards Director - Gjoko Muratovski.

Famous quotes containing the word design:

    Humility is often only the putting on of a submissiveness by which men hope to bring other people to submit to them; it is a more calculated sort of pride, which debases itself with a design of being exalted; and though this vice transform itself into a thousand several shapes, yet the disguise is never more effectual nor more capable of deceiving the world than when concealed under a form of humility.
    François, Duc De La Rochefoucauld (1613–1680)
