POSTERRORISM 2020. International Poster Competition – Call for entries

The secretariat of the global event has invited graphic artists around the world to attend POSTERRORISM 2020.
Today, a wide range of political organizations use terrorism to advance their goals. From the left, right-wing groups, nationalists, religious groups, revolutionaries, and even the ruling states, they use this weapon. The goal of the competition is not just to select superiority, but hope for finding the best ideas for setting up international plans to counteract the horror of the world, with a lifestyle perspective on peace and peace for the world.
We’re looking forward to such ideas and creative works in this event.
It should be noted that this exhibition will be held in different countries.

POSTERRORISM 2020 subject:
