Palestine Poster: Solidarity with Gaza
- Gaza solidarity poster designed by graphic artist Kevin Lo.
- Poster is available in PDF from the following link on-line.
Street level poster work and design has consistently played a critical role within international solidarity movements throughout the world.
Design work has often been the source for iconic illustrations of grassroots anti-colonial and social justice movements, while also playing an important role in maintaining collective and social memory on past anti-colonial struggles for social justice, providing inspiration and roots to our struggles for justice.
Artistic design has always played a critical role in communicating and mobilizing support for grassroots struggles; from the powerful poster art published in the Black Panther newspaper in the late 1960s and early 1970s, to the striking design work created by artists tied to the Africa National Congress (ANC) and the international movement against apartheid in South Africa and in the Middle East with the poster art from the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), art work widely produced in Palestine, Lebanon that survives until today within Palestinian history and the ongoing struggle against Israeli apartheid.
In the context of the growing international movement against Israeli apartheid, gaining momentum through a tangible campaign of boycott, divestment and sanctions targeting the Israeli state, Tadamon! Montreal is bringing together numerous artists and graphic designers to create a new wave of poster for Palestine in the contemporary framework of the international boycott campaign in opposition to Israeli apartheid to launch in fall 2009.
Graphic design and grassroots posters will play a critical role in communicating the ongoing struggle against Israeli apartheid in the Middle East, through artistic expressions of solidarity with lived struggles against colonization in the Middle East and creating artistic communication tools within poster art, this project aims to create a contemporary and creative expression of artistic solidarity with Palestine.
If you are a graphic artist, illustrator or artist that would be interested in contributing to this project, please don’t hesitate to contact Tadamon!

Dear Fellow Artists,
I salute your effort and could not agree with you more. Do check out my new website. I am presenting in Ramallah on the 19th of May and one of my suggestions for the Palestine Authority is that it sponsor its own Call for Posters and support efforts such as Tadamon!
I look forward to hearing from you.
In solidarity,
Dan Walsh

Comment by jordan — May 24th, 2010 @ 8:15 AMThe existence of the Zionist entity in the heart of the Arab and Muslim is itself a strange
Because the Zionist entity is not shared with the Arab world of anything characteristics such as religion, customs
Traditions and language. The existence of Israel within the Arab world is a big mistake, and constant tension
In the Middle East, and we note since 1948. Such as the entry of foreign bodies within the human body begins
Body fever, tension and fatigue and to ensure that until the UFOs.
To all Arab and Islamic countries to form the Ministry of Defence and one common to all States and the expulsion of the Jews
From the Middle East. This is the best choice for Arabs and Jews in that one because Bjrdasiraiil within the Arab world
Will feel the Arab world would not be true of the world would not be true of the Jewish people will never feel the stability and comfort, unless
Came out of Palestine, all Palestine greetings to all
There is no democracy in Israel as a state is illegitimate and illegal and not recognized
Comment by araaaabb — November 2nd, 2010 @ 6:44 AMEvidence of this if anyone wanted to write a comment in the Israeli websites
Does not allow him or be there are many obstacles to prevent him from writing a comment The reasons for Arab-Israeli conflict is the occupation of Palestine in 1948.
Palestine Arab Islamic state like the rest of the Arab and Islamic states surrounding
Them. Means that there are Jews and Zionists in Palestine a big mistake, because this entity
Zionist is not consistent with the surrounding area (such as language, customs, traditions and religion)
The only solution to end the Arab-Israeli conflict is the expulsion of Jews from Palestine
All of Palestine. The Jewish people will not rest and will not feel comfortable and stability
But if it gets out of Palestine and the Middle East completely. If people continue to
Jews in Palestine and the Middle East, the death and destruction will continue.
Palestine Arab Islamic state and will remain
There is no state called Israel.
