The 85th Art Directors Club Annual Awards Exhibition

  • DATES : Mon. February 5 - Fri. March 2, 2007

Since its founding in 1920, the Art Directors Club of New York, widely known as ADC, has played a leading role in the global realm of advertising. Its annual awards exhibitions consistently garner eager interest and attention from members of design and advertising communities across the globe – and this year’s show, the 85th in the series, is no exception.

The 85th ADC Awards competition attracted more than 10,000 entries from all across the United States and around the world. All entries had to be created and released during 2005. A total of 11 works were ultimately selected to win Gold Awards and 24 entries received Silver Awards. Two awards were bestowed on Japanese entries. Satoshi Takamatsu (ground) received a Gold Award for his creative work for the “Oshiete! goo” advertising campaign. Wabisabi (Ryohei “Wabi” Kudo and Kazushi “Sabi” Nakanishi) won a Silver Award for “Flesh and Blood,” their poster featuring their original “HORMON” typeface thematically derived from images of flesh and blood.

Every year, ADC’s award-winning and other outstanding works gleaned from around the world are placed on display at the organization’s gallery in New York City. With ADC’s kind cooperation, these works are subsequently shipped to Japan for showing at Creation Gallery G8.
