Following knowledgeable essays on the modern state of poster communication by curators from such institutions as The Museum of Modern Art, New York, and the German Poster Museum, this album presents more than 200 of the best new posters through 2007 and 2008, beautifully reproduced in full-page color plates. Each year Graphis, the international journal of visual communication, invites leading professionals across the photography, illustration, and graphic design communities to be considered for inclusion in annual books like this one, in each of these visual art fields. From thousands of submissions, the Graphis jury selects the most compelling work of the year in each category and selects winners for their Gold and Platinum Awards. The annuals therefore represent the finest cutting-edge work in commercial visual arts.
