Swiss Poster Award: 34 nominated campaigns
34 nominated campaigns left a strong competition of 330 contest entries behind and already rank among the best creations of the year. The awards will be presented to the winners at the "APG|SGA Poster Night" on March 7, 2019.
The Swiss Poster Award is one of the largest creative competitions in commercial communication for analog, digital and innovative advertising in Switzerland. It honors outstanding creativity, emphasizes the value of design, and underscores the importance of outdoor advertising. The shortlist has already been determined: 34 nominated campaigns have left strong competition of 330 contest entries behind and already rank among the best creations of the year.
Last December, an independent jury of experts consisting of 21 experienced personalities from advertising, culture and design, headed by jury president Christian Brändle, evaluated a total of 330 outdoor advertising campaigns submitted. For the first time, Yvan Piccinno (Y&R Group Switzerland) and the multiple award-winning graphic designer Paula Troxler (PANK) were represented on the jury. 34 competition entries impressed with originality, striking implementation of the advertising message and creative execution, among other things. They made it onto the shortlist and were nominated in six competition categories for the Swiss Poster Award 2018. The opening up of the "Poster Innovations" category to "Out of Home Innovations" led to a greater variety of submissions, as all outdoor advertising formats and technologies are now eligible for the competition.
The winners of the Swiss Poster Awards in gold, silver or bronze as well as the main winner across all categories "Poster of the Year" will be announced on March 7, 2019, at the APG|SGA Poster Night in Hall 622 in Zurich Oerlikon. Swiss presenter Alexandra Maurer will lead the festive event. She will present the finalists and hand over the awards to the winners together with the laudators from the expert jury. Once again this year, Marcello Weiss and his team will delight the audience with an innovative stage design. The winning works will also be shown at the festival for graphic design and technology "grafikSchweiz19".
