CASSEURS DE PUB
http://antipub.net
Founded in 1999, Casseurs de pub is an association that aims to
promote the public debate on a criticism of a consume-driven society
and the creation of visual alternatives to the dictatorship of
corporate visual imagery.
CDP publishes once a year a magazine (Casseurs de Pub),
distributed in 25000 copies in the kiosks nationwide, with amazing
examples of plagiarist graphic design. A printed quarterly newsletter
is been published to launch season campaigns such as the Rentrée
sans marque ("Back to school brand-free"),
Journée sans achat ("Buy Nothing
Day ") o Semaine sans télé
("Television-free Week").
CDP - in collaboration with the sister group Résistance
à l'Agression Publicitaire ("Resistance to
Advertisement Aggression") - produces also posters and animation
short movies, and organizes conferences, exhibitions and direct
actions.
Like its elder 'cousin' Adbusters, CDP has been founded by a former
ad-man.
