OBMIN POSTER ON POSTER BIENNALE IN WARSAW
March, 2023
Andrzej Budek, a renowned Polish designer, created the OBMIN logo, overlaying the name in its latin and cyrillic form. His poster will be shown at the 28th International Poster Biennale in Warsaw, to be opened on June 24th.
The International Poster Biennale was held for the first time in 1966 (at the 'Zachęta' galleries) as the first international cyclical event in the world devoted to the poster field. The idea for this type of review originated among Polish graphic artists and was directly initiated by Eryk Lipiński, for many years the organisation was handled by Prof. Józef Mroszczak, always assisted by Prof. Henryk Tomaszewski, and since 1990, Prof. Lech Majewski (currently President of the International Poster Biennale) has taken care of the Biennale. After 1994, the Biennale was held at the Poster Museum at Wilanów to finally return in 2018 to its birthplace, the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw.
Having worked for years to build its brand, the Biennale has always guaranteed the highest quality of the presented posters, as well as signs of innovation in the field. From the very beginning, the IPB has had a circle of supporters visiting Warsaw every 2 years, artists participating traditionally and competing with each other for laurels in this event, as well as, over time, new interested young poster fans. In essence, the main exhibition of the IPB always has the value of an uplifting set of impressions, in which one can see both the chronicling of the events of the past two years and the creative courage, diversity, breadth, openness - in other words, everything that can be defined generally as freedom.

Including the Biennale Main Exhibition and the exhibition of the winner of the Józef Mroszczak Award granted by the Rector of the Academy of Fine Arts in Warsaw. The winner is Alain le Quernec. 24.06–12.09.2023
