Since the North Sea Jazz Festival had moved to Rotterdam in 2006 its annual Art Poster Competition has turned into a tradition! The Art Poster Competition is held among students of Rotterdam’s Willem de Kooning Academy; the work of all finalists is usually exhibited at the festival.
After a long and intense discussion last Friday we have a winner of First Prize of the North Sea Jazz Art Poster Competition: Simon Uyterlinde, (Illustration, 2nd Year).
The Jury has also selected 14 posters that will accompany the First Prize winner in the exhibition at the North Sea Jazz Festival and in Jazz Cafe Dizzy, in this selection the second and third winners will also be present. The names of these two winners will be announced at the opening of the exhibition on July 11 in Jazz Cafe Dizzy.
