Three young Aussies awarded at ADC
New York based The Art Directors Club last night announced the 50 young creatives from 14 countries - including three from Australia - to claim the prestigious ADC Young Guns 7 title. Selected from entries received from 84 countries (up from 46 countries last year), these ADC Young Guns 7 winners represent an impressive global roster of young talent in the fields of graphic design, photography, illustration, advertising and art direction, environmental design, film, animation & video, interactive design, product design and typography.
The Australian winners were:
• Clinton Duncan - Self-employed, Australia
• Ivana Martinovic - Landor Associates, Australia
• Jake Smallman - Paper Stone Scissors, Australia
A selection of their winning work, comprised of both professional and personal projects, is being exhibited at ADC Gallery (106 W. 29th St., New York) from October 22 to November 6, Monday-Friday, 10:00 am - 6:00 pm.
This work will also be printed in a commemorative, limited-edition volume published exclusively for the Art Directors Club by Moleskine®. The full body of winners' submitted work will be available in November 2009 as part of ADC's permanent collection online. Members of ADC Young Guns 7 class receive the iconic ADC Young Guns Cube, complimentary one-year membership to ADC, and an assortment of career-boosting benefits from ADC Young Guns sponsors.
Winners also get a chance to create original artwork for the recently opened New York location of Ace Hotel. Dubbed "the country's most original new hotel" by The New York Times, Ace Hotel's vintage-mod aesthetic caters to the urban nomad on a mission for experience. Ace Hotel will be selecting artists from the ADC Young Guns 7 winning class later this year.
This year's 50 winners joins an elite group of past winners, including then-rising stars who went on to become leaders in their chosen fields such as Stefan Sagmeister and James Victore (graphic design), Deanne Cheuk (illustration), Jeremy Floto and Cassandra Warner (aka floto+warner, photography), Alexander Gelman (advertising), Rei Inamoto and Jerome Austria (interactive media), Mike Mills (film and video), Alex Trochut (typography), Todd St. John (animation) and others.
To elevate the spirit of competition among ADC Young Guns and encourage a strong sense of community, a panel of 23 past ADC Young Guns served as the jury for this ADC YG7 competition.
