Will AIGA Go After the United Nations Over Their New Logo Contest?

Last week, the AIGA publicly complained about the National Endowment for the Arts‘ launch of a “design our new logo” competition, saying spec work of that sort damages design professions. Now that they’ve gone local, they might also decided to go global to make a statement against the United Nations‘ launch of the World Urban Campaign Logo Competition. The contest is on the hunt for a logo for the World Urban Campaign sessions, held this year in Rio de Janeiro in mid-March.
