Tolerance Posters

I just recently received the new issue of   IT’S A PASSION THING   magazine. In this issue, Karin Novozamsky conducted an interview with me about Tolerance Project.  IT’S A PASSION THING is an Austrian biannual magazine, celebrating aptitude and passion in creating a style of life. "From artisanal craftsmanship to modern digital design to serial entrepreneurs – IT’S A PASSION THING offers a contemporary perspective on making things become reality. Focusing on the identity, personality and individuality of those makers, IT’S A PASSION THING showcases inspirational people, stories and products from all over the globe. The interviewees open their doors and allow us to see their process, success stories and failures."

I am happy to share with you that on April 23rd, 2023, I held a lecture in the exhibition hall of the National Museum of Zrenjanin in Serbia entitled " Design Activism " , accompanying the Tolerance Poster Show in Belo Blato, a small village near Zrenjanin. The lecture is about the necessity of freedom of expression and the need for artistic activism. The organizer of the lecture at the National Museum of Zrenjanin was curator and art historian Dejan Vorgić with the support of Marta Aničić (AirMarta) and Salaš Lujza , who are the organizers of the Tolerance Poster Show in Belo Blato.

As part of the Tolerance Poster Show, during the week of March 27th, 2023, I held a Tolerance Poster workshop for the students at the MOME, Moholy-Nagy University of Art and Design in Budapest. After the workshop, the student posters were displayed on the wall of the school's main lobby, where the Tolerance Poster Show's posters were displayed on the floor.   The workshop was organized by prof. Simon Bence Péter, and it was made possible with the support of the MOME Foundation as part of the "Global Voices at MOME" initiative. Photos by Máté Lakos.

We are pleased to announce that  Miami International University of Art & Design  has prepared a show inspired by the Tolerance Poster Show. In collaboration with  Amer_icanican , they are bringing the show to Miami in 2023. Led by Professor Nestor Camacho, Master of Visual Art students created posters inspired by the word Tolerance and what that word meant to them. Then, Bachelor of Fashion Design students translated those posters into apparel.  The show is currently on display at  DK Display Corp.  at 147 West 25th Street in New York.    

 Here is the link to the first announcement of the Tolerance Poster Show at La Casa del Lago-UNAM , Mexico City. The show will take place on March 4th and will be on display until May 7th. "In a world increasingly divided by social injustice and racial disparity,   The Tolerance Poster Show  uses the unique power of design and graphics to remind us of what all people have in common.    In this context, La Casa del Lago-UNAM joins the list of venues where the exhibition has been hosted with its assembly in Las Rejas de la Milla del Bosque de Chapultepec, which has been characterized as a space for reflection and promulgation of the social slogan."    

On January 21st,  June Art Home 's students, aged 16-18, were invited to create their own Tolerance posters. Since there is no direct translation for the word tolerance in the Thai language, the students of  June Art Home  found their own replacement for that word. They designed their Tolerance posters based on them. To be inspired in their creation, the students were surrounded by the official Tolerance posters created by professional artists. At the end of the workshop, the students' Tolerance posters were on display alongside the official Tolerance Poster Show. The event also included movie screenings and students reading stories. The founder of  June Art Home , Chitlada Wiriyaprasit - June, hopes that after this experience, the students can be inspired to develop their artistic skills and social responsibilities.   Chitlada Wiriyaprasit - June opened her schoolin 1997.
