Success and Uncertainty
The ‘Success and Uncertainty’ project displays a series of 21 neatly designed posters that were made by Dutch graphic designers Sandra Kassenaar and Bart de Baets during their residency in Cairo during the outburst of the revolution in Egypt and the resignation of president Hosni Mubarak in Spring, 2011. Kassenaar and De Baets created one poster every day for a period of three weeks, that were displayed at the entrance of a gallery in Cairo.
All posters in the series commented on recent events and contain political discussions, interviews with locals in Cairo, international comments on the revolution, observations and more. The series is on show between 3-18 March at the San Serriffe art book shop in Amsterdam, so be sure to check it out when you’re nearby!
