For the contributors :
Life Culture of PeopleA request for information of "handbill" publication, and your contribution
This time ICO, which continues publication of international arts books, is planing to publish a new title dealing with International Newspaper Inserts, entitled "Chirashi".
The Newspaper Insert is the economy of the country, and the barometer of life and also it's an important media which symbolizes real common folk's culture.
This book describes the "Chirashi" culture which expresses directly the current trends of our times. Also, we'll try to compare and contrast the Newspaper Insert expressions through each country's representative ones visually. It is going to deepen the expression domain academically.
Each country has various differences, such as language, lifestyle, and the economic situation but "The Newspaper Insert" is the common visual media from all over the world which just connects with people and industries through the shortest distance.
The "Newspaper Insert" system which has spread internationally, has a common media that is connecting somewhere and some spot.
Please participate in a comparative experimental trial for this edition.
In addition, your contribution to this book is no charge. Since we have a page restriction please book your page in advance. If by any chance it becomes full prior to your submission please forgive us.
Thanks Regards,
