Supporting the European Campaign to Ban Aviation Advertising
1/ Citizens, activists and artists in 15 european cities have hacked 500 billboard sites with satirical airline ads ✈️🔥 ✍️ Sign the European Citizens’ Initiative to #BanFossilAds banfossilfuelads.org
With Brandalism by their side, the S.I. put a call out for activists and artists all over Europe to take action against aviation advertising on the week of the 10th of September. (“Aviation advertising” means more than just ads for airlines and airports, it includes the advertising agencies that promote them and the profiteering energy giants that fuel them too).
London, Bristol, Manchester, Sheffield, Brighton, Paris, Barcelona, Brussels, Lisbon and Rome were some of the key cities where billboards, bus stops and public transport advertising spaces were hacked with over 500 satirical artworks from renowned subvertisers and artists from all over the globe.
