Call for proposals for the Cities of the World/ Festival of Graphic Design project.

The project is a commission given by Alliance Française Foundation to nearly 800 Alliances in 138 countries worldwide. Each Alliance, locally, is invited to solicit graphic artists or students in graphic design to conceive and to bring to life a creation of their own that celebrates their city. Aesthetic and political gamble, this original initiative will gather together all creations that will be sent in by different Alliances Françaises and will be the subject of a major exhibition in Paris, in the form of hard copy posters or flags that will be showcased in one of the venues partnering with the Festival of Graphic Design, either in Paris or its metropolitan area. The result will be printed by the book by the Festival of Graphic Design's partners.

The file will have to be sent before 25 July 2014.
