Californian vibes for the 2019 Printemps de Pérouges festival

A blue flamingo from the desert

In 2019, the Printemps de Pérouges Festival goes for californian vibes with an offbeat visual, featuring a blue flamingo in a pink desert... Sunglasses, feathers, rocks and cacti are the backdrop for this 23rd edition of the festival.

The design of this visual is in line with the previous editions: the lettering at the top of the poster, and an illustration made of cut-out and origami papers. The visual spirit is definitely "pop"... with a dash of unexpected: a blue flamingo!

That's where little Louison (9 years old) comes in: "But... flamingos are not blue, thy are pink!!".... argument quickly followed with an equally crazy answer: "Well, elephants are pink sometimes!"...
In short, all tastes and colours are in nature... A discussion that could end with the Little Prince's remark "what matters is that emotion is in the unexpected"!

7 years and 7 posters...

Every year, for the past 7 years, the festival team has renewed its trust in Graphéine. The poster series increases and is enriched... and always with this guiding principle of paper sculptures! You can rediscover the making-of of the creation of the previous posters here for the 2017 and 2018 posters.

The program

Making of...

Our first creative concepts were oriented towards a more nocturnal and disco atmosphere, with the flamingo staged on a giant piano keyboard, and surrounded by disco balls...
A composition that will not be selected, in favour of the even more offbeat visual that we presented above.

The 23rd edition of the Pérouges Spring Festival will be held from June 12 to 27 on the Plaine de l'Ain stage.
