Icograda World Congress, Havana, Cuba

The Icograda World Design Congress 2007 was held last week (20-26 October 2007) in Havana, Cuba. This is the largest and most comprehensive design event in the world with participation from national design associations in 49 countries and individual attendees from who-knows-how-many countries. The AIGA Center for Cross-Cultural Design (AIGA XCD) and Prografica, the Cuban design association/host of this congress, presented an exhibition of peace posters called Shared Dreams 2007. Many of my associates from AIGA XCD were there. The above image is a set of posters created by Prografica for the Congress and I am including links below to more information and photos about the World Congress.
