Republik Promotes Third-World Artists

ATLANTA The Republik’s first work for new client One World Market asks consumers to relate to the artists of impoverished countries.

The Chapel Hill, N.C., agency created three posters printed with natural inks on recycled paper for the Durham, N.C.-based client, a nonprofit vendor of third-world crafts.

Headlines such as “You don’t need a tortured soul to create meaningful art. An empty stomach will do” are paired with line drawings of artisans and their crafts, most of which retail for under $50.
