Beijing Olympics: logo alternative

Posted by Marc | 15-03-2008 21:08 | Category: Beijing Olympics, Design, Human rights

In my search for protest artwork about the Beijing Olympics 2008 I asked Hayan Maani to participate. He came up with this simple and very effective proposal for a logo (see above, left: official logo). Let ‘Beijing 2008’ be ‘Freedom 2008’.
Feel free to use it to spread the word.

I’d love to see more artwork, see the call for entries.
See all entries in the Beijing 2008 category.

Below are 4 pictures, about the possible making of the official logo, which are going round on the internet. I don’t have any details about them, but the visuals are very clear.

Yes it’s made in Japan, just like the scene that they killed 300,000 people in my city, Nanjing.

Now it’s 2008 and they want to kill in Beijing? LOL

Come on Japs, we are ready!
