Fergus O’Neill- Grand Grand Grand

Irish Graphic Design company who plan to sell 42 billion posters in a bid to halve Ireland’s banking crisis debt. In June 2010, a very disillusioned Fergus O’Neill lifted pen to paper and created a series of posters which bore the slogan ‘Keep Going Sure It’s Grand’ – a message that seemed to reflect the hopeless attitude of our current government. In the months that followed, the realisation that we were in a lot more trouble than we could ever imagine started to unfold and the posters began to take on a whole new meaning. The initial phrase ‘Keep Going Sure It’s Grand’, which reflects a typically Irish attitude, has now taken on a motivational aspect with which to move forward amidst the deepening crisis.

One euro from every poster sold by grand grand grand goes to the state, the ultimate goal being to sell 42 billion posters worldwide, thus halving the debt incurred by the banking crisis. A weekly count of monies earmarked for the state is tracked on the keep going facebook page.
