2011

Due to the current difficult economic situation and the priorities set by the new Municipal Authority of Ithaca, the budget for the Ten Images for Ithaca 2011 was not approved. We are thus forced to cancel the events.

The contest was organised for the first time in 2002. In the course of its ten year presence it has hosted posters by young designers from around the world and also works of well known Greek and foreign designers. During this period, at the exhibitions and jury committees, we have had the pleasure and the honour of seeing names such as Niklaus Troxler, Alain Le Quernec, Luba Lukova, Oded Ezer, Lex Drewinski, Sadik Karamustafa, Ruedi Baur, Fernando Gutierrez, Phil Baines, Cordula Alessandri, Jonathan Barnbrook, Peter Bilak, Sabina Oberholzer, Dimitris Arvanitis, Beetroot, π6, Designers United, K2 design, Red Creative, busybuilding and many others.

I would like to thank all those who helped all these years Ten Images for Ithaca to become one of the most important annual poster events: the participants, the members of the jury, the workshop leaders,  the volunteers, the sponsors and the visitors.

I would also like to thank the Greek Graphic Designers' Association, the Design Museum of Thessaloniki and +design magazine, for their valuable support.

I hope this year will be just a break and next year we will return with the competition, workshops and exhibitions in Ithaca and Athens.
