Macbeth
Designed by Esen Karol, GMK, Turkey
[greater equal]Macbeth[less equal] is a poster designed for a play performed by [greater equal]Rustaveli[less equal], the State Theater of Georgia for their one night performance in Istanbul. It is not a general poster for Shakespeare's famous Macbeth and does not try to interpret Shakespeare's text. It is rather a poster of Rustaveli's performance and tries to emphasize their interpretation of the text.
Esen Karol. Born 1967 in Ankara. BA in Graphic Design, Mimar Sinan University, Istanbul. MS with Fulbright Scholarship in Graduate Communications Design Department, Pratt Institute, New York. She teaches typography at Graphic Design Department, MSU, Istanbul. She works in her own design studio primarily for cultural clients, specializing in publication design.

Picture stuff is a bit trickier than it looks
By Colin Wood, Design Graphics
There are countless myths and legends concerned with the search for meaning. And if the journey falls a little short of expectations, and no meaning is apparent, then we seem to be content to settle for relevance. If that fails to materialise, then just being there may be as much comfort as we can muster...
