Now, I'm not saying it has to be nessessarily Andy Warhol, or the like; but I thought if he was successful at promoting something then why not have a look at what he did; just to get ideas:
"I hear you like Tomato Soup"
"As product marketing manager for Campbell's, William MacFarland must have been overjoyed with the incredible public reaction to Andy Warhol's first exhibition as a fine artist in 1962, as present at the gallery was his now world-famous Campbell's Soup Cans piece: 32 silkscreened portraits, each representing a different variety of the company's soup product, all arranged in a single line. The work provoked huge debate in all corners of the art world and helped bring the Pop art movement to the masses; all the while holding a certain brand in the limelight.
In 1964, as Warhol's star continued to rise, MacFarland decided to make his pleasure known to the artist by way of the following letter. Some complimentary cans of soup soon followed."

His images are very simple...
Lets Spark Some Interest...
In post / image below, there is some painted artwork on the corrugated card. This material is easily painted on; We could add related images of our choice (not nessesarily painted on) to exhibit peoples work, ideas, business etc. and / or help to build a festival atomosphere or even just get their name recognised / noticed / promote whatever it is we decide on... directly onto the card?!
- In previous post the supporting explanation for my post is a statement from the brief;
"Designs should make full use of an existing stock of 2-ply (10mm thick) Corrugated card"
