Baetulona Exhibition Lanuched
Back in September I wrote a post about Baetulona project and showed my contribution which was a poster about Franco.
The exhibition showcasing the entire project was launched this week in Barcelona. I'm really glad to take part in this project. I'd love to go there and visit this 100 meter long piece, it looks very impressive! You can see my Franco poster at 1:01 and 1:17.

Baetulona Project
Baetulona is a project by Brrothers who invited 100 studios and artists to take part in celebrating the history of Badalona city. The idea is to create a printed canvas 100 meters long and a book that will tell a graphic story by showing 100 most important moments in the history of Badalona.
"The project was launched to Badalonas city hall within the framework of Catalan Culture Capital which the city hosts during 2010. We meant to create a 100 meters canvas in which the most important hundred historical moments of the city would be represented. We also wanted 100 main studios in graphic design and illustration from all around the world to perform that work."

My brief was to illustrate the arrival of Franco's troops to Badalona in January 1939, which was the beginning of Franco's regime.
I decided on a simple idea of creating a typographic image - marching soldiers forming the name of the dictator:
Before I decided on the final version (above) I've done some tests with colour selection and composition:
