科罗拉多国际海报双年展(CIIPE)始于1979年,旨在让科罗拉多州立大学以及整个校园和周围社区的学生接触到来自世界各地的最佳海报设计师和艺术家的作品。受邀者是由展览委员会挑选的目前从事海报工作的最优秀设计师,他们的作品在世界各地的陪审竞赛、展览和美术馆中被广泛展出,且在多个奖项评选中获得荣誉,许多设计师有同时被多个展览邀请的经历。CIIPE是少数的邀请性展览会之一,所以展会也是为了庆祝来自世界各地的才华横溢的海报艺术家以及他们的杰出作品。

The Colorado International Invitational Poster Exhibition (CIIPE) was begun in 1979 as a way to expose students at Colorado State University, as well as the campus as a whole and surrounding communities, to a showcase of the best poster designers and artists from around the world. The invitees are selected by the directors of the exhibition as examples of the very best designers working on posters currently, having shown extensively in juried competitions, exhibitions, and galleries around the world, often being the award winners of the shows, and many have been invited to exhibit in several editions. The CIIPE is one of a very few invitational showcases that exist, so the unique nature of the exhibition itself is an event to celebrate the work of talented and exceptional poster artists from around the world.
