Poster Design - War of Words

Introduction about the client:
The Canadian War Museum will be hosting an exhibition in the spring of 2008 called War of Words. The exhibit covers the period from 1929 to 1989 and will contain no images or artifacts but will instead attempt to bring alive important political events around the world using only audio recordings. 

This is a transit-shelter poster which will be displayed in all major Canadian and several US cities to promote the exhibition. I used the colour purple because of how it symbolizes spirituality. I wanted to use only typography to reprent the quote by Gandhi. 

The requirements of the poster were as follows:
Size: 4 feet by 6 feet
Typefaces: Maximum of 1 family
Colours: Maximum of 2
Images: Maximum of 1
Copy: War of Words; Canadian War Museum, Ottawa; 
January 2 to April 30, 2008
