TRNAVA POSTER TRIENNIAL 2009
From 05.12.2014 Triennial
Slovakia (Slovak Republic)The Trnava Poster Triennial (TPT) 2009 is a public non-anonymous international competitive exhibition of posters produced from March 2006 - 15 May 2009.
Organisers of the seventh year of the TPT take advantage of the 17-year-old good reputation of the event, declaring its support for traditional values respected by the international graphic design community and at the same time bringing innovations reflecting the constantly changing character of graphic design.
With the introduction of a new category - B - design of websites - TPT 2009 uses the principles of information dissemination in both the public and virtual space. It takes over and expands characteristics and possibility of a poster. Confrontation of both media can clarify the contemporary characteristics of each of them as well as their interrelation.
