Book Fair Frankfurt
The Frankfurt Book Fair (FBF) is the world’s largest trade fair for books. It is held in October at the Frankfurt Trade Fair grounds in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. Every year a focus of interest is named for the fair. In the year 2013 it was Brazil. On the verge of this event FBF hangs up posters for the guest of honour in the city. To one German citizens ought be reminded of the guest of honour to the other people from Brazil visiting Germany due to the Book Fair get greeted.
Poster Draft 1
For this poster-idea I screenprinted an hessian bag to achieve the look of a brasilian coffee-bag. The message: Germany imports every day coffee from Brazil, but during the Book Fair the coffee-bags are filled with books instead of coffee beans. This poster was selected for a postcard series (Place: 4–10).
Poster Draft 2
“Heimspiel” means “home game”. It supposed to be a wink to the next football world cup in Brazil back then (2014). I made the book fair in Germany look like the preliminary round, just with books.
