    Relatively modest - 

    Juni 2011: In reactie op de voorgenomen cultuurbezuinigingen van het kabinet startte Mediamatic een poster campagne. Met deze infographics maakte wij inzichtelijk hoe bescheiden het kunstbudget is in vergelijking tot andere overheids- en consumenten uitgaven. De posters sierden regio Amsterdam en Den Haag ten tijde van de Mars der Beschaving. Ze zijn herprint in onder andere het Parool en zijn gepubliceerd tijdens de Visible Data tentoonstelling in Bratislava.

Infographics culture cuts

The infographics showed how small the culture budget actually is compared to other government- and consumer spending. The posters were distributed in Amsterdam and Den Haag, and the design could be downloaded and printed for free from our website. Have a look at the whole campaign here. It was inspired by a design by Ruben Pater for SLASH/ART.
