The "Face of the City – Global Poster Invitational Exhibition (Macau)" is co-organized by the Macao Museum of Art (under the Civic and Municipal Affairs Bureau) and the Macau Poster Design Association, with the Kaohsiung Advertising Creative Association as the co-organizer. The exhibition features 100 selected posters from Canada, Denmark, Finland, Hungary, Iran, Japan, South Korea, Mainland China, Taiwan, Macau, and other regions, including works by world-renowned designers.
A city's cultural landscape is a concentrated reflection of its civilization. Economic, cultural, and environmental changes continuously reshape people's perceptions of urban spaces. Originally launched to coincide with the 2011 "World Design Congress" in Taiwan, the Kaohsiung Advertising Creative Association initiated this global poster invitation on the theme "Face of the City," gathering 285 works from 14 countries and 25 cities for its debut in Kaohsiung.
The Macau edition presents a curated selection of 100 pieces from this collection.
International designers featured include Andrew Lewis, Armando Milani, Finn Nygaard, Kari Piippo, Pekka Loiri, Fons Hickmann, Istvan Orosz, Mehdi Saeedi, as well as renowned Japanese designers such as Yoshiyasu Aoba, Katsumi Asaba, Kaoru Kasai, Mitsuo Katsui, Kazumasa Nagai, Taku Satoh, Kenya Hara, Shin Matsunaga, and designers from South Korea, Taiwan, and beyond.
Local Macau designers participating in the exhibition are Wong Chi Kuan, Chan Wai Hou, Chan Weng Ip, Wu Hong Kin, Chun Hin Wai, Chan Ieng Kin, Fu Hiu Tong, and Tang Pou I.
Designers from around the world interpret the theme from diverse perspectives, infusing their creations with unique styles, cultural identities, and contemporary social atmospheres. The inclusion of Macau designers offers a local lens on the city's rapid economic development and urban transformation. Visitors can explore the varied faces of global cities through this collection of poster art, gaining a deeper understanding of different regional cultures and the impact of societal progress.
