This is the biggest international poster

exhibition within the last 16 years in Indonesia.

It involved 66 designers from 17 countries:

Indonesia, USA, India, Japan, Malaysia,

Singapore, South Korea, The Netherlands,

Thailand, Vietnam, Taiwan, Iran, Germany, UK,

Canada, Denmark, Hong Kong. And it has

become more meaningful to all the designers

involved, who had dedicated all their abilities

in creating for Indonesia.

Due to all contributions to the committee,

the “Light of Hope for Indonesia” International

Poster Exhibition was accomplished

successfully in several cities in Indonesia:

Jakarta, September 7-11, 2005

Jakarta Convention Center

Yogyakarta, October 9-13, 2005

Bentara Budaya Yogyakarta

Bandung, October 19-22, 2005

Campus Center, Institut Teknologi Bandung

Surabaya, November 18-24, 2005

Universitas Kristen Petra Surabaya

F O R E W O R D

Enormous enthusiasm is evident as recorded

in the total of 40,000 attendance. The biggest

number of visitors took place in Jakarta in

conjunction with FGD Expo 2005, the largest

graphic exhibition in Southeast Asia.

There are many activities that the committee

must carry on following the “Light of Hope

for Indonesia” exhibition, such as the

publication of the posters contributed by the

designers so that it will be beneficial to

Indonesia. Up to this day, we have received

many positive responses, offers that the posters

be exhibited again and requests that the

posters be used in relevant social campaigns.

The committee will try to facilitate this as the

contributing designers have warranted it.

The “Light of Hope for Indonesia” International

Poster Exhibition was also a valuable learning

experience for the committee in organizing

an international event. In the future, we hope

that the good relationship and cooperation

formed can be further developed in even larger

events.

We gratefully thank the participating designers,

to all sponsors and parties who have realized

this exhibition.
