After Berlin and Paris, Zurich hosts this year’s Illustrative, which takes place from October 17. - 26.
 
 The main exhibition features over 400 works by 35 artists and gives an international overview which represents the various facets of illustrative art. The main display features well-known artists such as German illustrators Olaf Hajek and Martin Haake, Spanish comic artist Jorge Fabian Gonzales Varela, American illustrators Eric Sandberg, Vincet Hui and Edwin Ushiro, as well as Japanese Artist Yoh Nagao.
 
 The main display will be complemented by an exhibition featuring the 20 best emerging artists, nominated by an international jury for the “Young Illustrators Award”. The award-winning works will be presented in a distinct section within the larger exhibition. These works will represent the latest trends and styles found in the illustrative and graphic arts genres.
 
 A highlight of the Illustrative 08 will be a live showcase of the VJ collective Walldisplay, who will be accompanied by the local DJ heroes Round Table Knights. The performance is an audio-visual artwork that you can hear, see and feel. Be part of it and dance!
