The

Fryderyk Chopin Institute

invites you to take part in a competition for visual identification of the

18th Fryderyk Chopin International Piano Competition

.

The graphic presentation of one of the oldest music competitions in the world has always inspired great interest. Its first edition in

1927

brought with it the birth of a Chopin poster concept that has endured without interruption until this day. Its essence is the combination of a typographic element with symbolism referring both to the person of

Fryderyk Chopin

, and to the long-standing tradition of the Chopin Competition.

The competition shall proceed in

two rounds

. In the first of them, participants shall submit an application form and a graphic design in B1 poster format and technique, fulfilling the requirements contained in the Competition Rules and Regulations, on or before

10 May 2017

.

30 June 2017

, all elements of the visual identification of the

18th Fryderyk Chopin International Piano Competition

, listed in the Rules and Regulations.

Each candidate may submit up to three drawings (JPG 300 dpi and EPS vector format).

There is no entry fee
