Goodbye Poster?


The poster has changed status:
It’s no longer visible on the streets of my country. 
It doesn’t make sense in large cities anymore because there aren’t places from where to hang them. The poster as something popular has disappeared.
Why can’t what happens on the Internet happen on the street? 
Why isn’t there an orderly, more democratic way of showing the world a good poster?
Why aren’t there more platforms? Because it can’t continue to inhabit the streets without depending on private or public funding. 
Something must be done: The Pirulí, Pirulón, Pirulero project is born   

The first action was articles and conferences on this topic. 

The second action: 500 posters that were distributed in Barcelona in December 2010 with the motto:
“The poster is almost dead in this city” 

Goodbye Poster?
I look forward to seeing you in the galleries and in books.
