The special Kukuxumusu drawing for the 2010 fiestas can now be
seen on posters, billboards, phone booths, calendars and on various
products of the Sanfermin Kukuxumusu collection. On all these supports,
and on the tee shirts as well, the graphic resource of 3D
has been used, a novel approach from The Drawing Factory which uses this
technique for the first time in its twenty-one years of producing
Sanfermin drawings. To get the three-dimensional view of the drawing,
Kukuxumusu has manufactured more than 40.000 special glasses which are
already available at all their outlets and which will be handed out at
different locations throughout the fiestas. It will be also available at
our online shop.
On this special tee shirt of the year, the drawing with the
three-dimensional view can be seen on the rear of the garment, while on
the front, the drawing of the running of the bulls has been made in
normal form. "It's a tee shirt to have some fun with, and to have a
laugh at the 3D effect. That's why the 3D is on the rear side, so we can
view the drawing on other peoples' tee shirts" explains Mikel Urmeneta,
creative director at Kukuxumusu.
Urmeneta stressed that the drawing is "doubly special" since, not only
has it got the novelty of being able to be viewed in 3D, but it is also
meant to be a special homage to all those people who have been
accompanying Kukuxumusu down through the years during Sanfermin. "We
have managed to get into the drawing of the running of the bulls all the
previous winners of the Kukuxumusu award for foreign visitors, the
‘Guiri del Año', as well as two representatives from the ‘Jai Day',
festival, where we pay homage to other renowned fiestas around the world
- both the person who came last year for the Tomatina and for this
year's Oktoberfest replica which we are hosting. There are also other
personalities who have supported us down the years from our beginnings
and even us three founder-members of Kukuxumusu have found a spot among
the crowd of runners.
In addition to this special "star" tee shirt for Sanfermin 2010, The
Factory of Ideas and Drawings have launched a wide variety of other tee
shirt models, among them a special homage to the Giants and all their
Troupe as they celebrate the 150th anniversary of their creation.
