I wouldn’t believe how difficult (almost impossible) would be to find more information about members of the jury or winner’s portfolios of the biennale. I was quite disappointed, because I hoped I could show the posters and get to know more about their work.

Chinese designer Yin Zhongjun have a website but it’s bit hard to find.
ruiyan and you can also find his work on Flickr
Have a look.
Its a shame that your name wasn’t nominated between these 70 designers, isn’t it. Good luck in next exhibition.

Yes that’s true, even when you supply your peaces of work and they make a choice you don’t really know what’s the presentation about, and what’s behind the scene, sometime you don’t get catalog ether.
It’s not really fair to be honest you supply your vision, your time, your money, you whole address and contact with email and they don’t manage the time to say.
Thank you.
Well let’s try another one …
