It is true that 31 poster finalists, including the 5 medalists, from the Chicago Biennial are available for viewing on DesignObserver, but those are only 31 out of a total of 167 finalists that are on display at Daley Bicentennial Plaza. Look for a catalogue of the finalists, 5 medalists, and a lot more near the end of October at chicagobiennial.org.

Very cool posters here. I like Decemberists especially. I’ve saved some posters from way back because they were just neat and haven’t thought about them for years. I’ll need to dig them out to see what I have!

kim, agreed! an excellent example of the right words being worth many, many pictures.

holly, decemberists. the revolt of 1825? the indie rockers?

Hello,

I’m designing the catalog of the Poster Biennial right now, and would love to includ some of those pictures…

Please could the photograph contact us at the office of the Biennial.

Thanks in advance
