Tolerance Posters

At the Tolerance Poster Show in Ljubljana , two Ukrainian and two Russian posters are hanging together.

Thank you to Pavel Pisklakov who came up with the idea to include the poster show as part of the festival. He organized many aspects of the show and managed to win the support of the city.  I would also like to thank Rifat Abdrashitov, Pavel's partner in the "Design Events" Project.
