"Students for Tolerance" Show

Tonight was the opening of the "Student for Tolerance" show.

The poster exhibition explores the question of what tolerance is and how it can be represented visually. Design students from Dortmund, Graz, Ljubljana and Zagreb dealt with the question of how strong visual concepts and messages on the topic of tolerance can be developed with the help of various design techniques.

The results were translated by the students into individual posters, which are presented as part of the exhibition “Students for Tolerance”. The resulting works are characterized by diverse design approaches and range from the classic poster to the mixed reality poster to Tonight is the opening of the Student for Tolerance show.

2nd Tolerance Posters Show in Zagreb, Croatia

On November 16th, the International Day of Tolerance , the Tolerance Poster Show was displayed in the center of Zagreb on the fence of the Botanical Garden . Here is a link to a short video of the show . Unfortunately only 24 hours later, the show was "attacked" by Neo-Nazis graffitis. On the posters, they wrote "NDH", which is the abbreviation for Nezavisna Država Hrvatska (Independent State of Croatia) a Second World War puppet state of Nazi Germany. On others, they graffitied the letter "U" which is the symbol for Ustaša the Second World War Croatian fascist organization. And they even wrote "Smrt Srbozločincima" (Death to the Serbian criminals). Luckily, the organizers of the show figured out how to remove this hate speech and the symbols. Outrage over this vandalism, was expressed through all news media in Croatia. Here , here , here , and here are some of the local media reactions. You can see the video of the show here . This show...
