2021 The 10th China International Poster Biennial

China International Poster Biennial was first started in 2003 in Hangzhou, China, the city known for the West Lake. It is a poster design competition with the highest standard in China and one of the most popular poster competitions and exhibitions in the international graphic design field. Up to now, we have received more than tens of thousands of posters from more than 40 countries and regions.

Posters are a medium that transcends language by reflecting the current ideas, aesthetics and trends of thought, and by taking down the reflections of the designers from different regions on social, cultural and environmental phenomena. The all-encompassing works also record the development of an era and create a visual history of the times. As time changes so fast, we are expecting more diverse, open and innovative posters.

The 10th China International Poster Biennial will be held in Hangzhou in November 2021, whose purpose is to present the diversified development and innovative exploration of global poster design, so as to promote cultural exchanges and mutual learning in the international graphic design field. This biennale is sponsored by China Academy of Art and Zhejiang Artists Association, and co-organized by the School of Design of China Academy of Art, the Graphic Design Committee of Zhejiang Artists Association, and  China Design Museum. By the time, a jury composed of the most influential graphic designers worldwide will judge strictly in accordance with the international practices. All awards will be selected according to the rules of the competition and all the final decisions will be made by the jury.
