50 / 50 funded

image002With one more day to go, the campaign to fund an exhibition and catalogue for the annual 50/50 book design competition has been successful.

Hosted by the Design Observer Group and sponsored by the American Institute of Graphic Arts, this is the 92nd year that 50 books and 50 book covers will be selected to represent the best work published. Originally only books produced in the United States were accepted but now, an international selection are considered.

In October, these books will be exhibited at the AIGA design conference in New Orleans. If you would like to help and receive a copy of the exhibition catalogue, you have a few hours left to log into kickstarter.
