The keynote of a series of these graphic arts is in the fact that seven directors, photographers and designers concentrated their ability into a single work.
This production attitude can be considered as an experimentation of the establishment of art director system in question today.
Only because of the lack of appeal in selling goods the works are far from the purpose of production. This is the weak side of this exhibition.
