We expect to receive posters for solo or group exhibitions; for forums and poster competitions; for personalities from the world of the poster; posters that reflect your personal attitude towards the poster itself as a way of thinking and as a stage for expression.

The section is open to posters issued for events that have already taken place or that are created specifically for the tenth edition of the International Triennial of Stage Poster-Sofia.
No text is required.
