Promoting Cultural Interaction
Golden Bee collects the best world achievements in graphic design. The biennial was established in 1992. The Moscow-based event is aimed at promoting and deepening international cultural interaction in the area of graphic design.
The biennale is aimed at achieving new horizons of creativity and reinforce the spiritual aspect of graphics.
For about two decades, graphic designers have referred to Golden Bee biennale to know the new trends in the world of graphic art. It is no exaggeration to say that Golden Bee has been the catalyst of many recent developments in visual culture.
