Eyewear for the Universal Forum on Culture 2004

From May 9 to September 26, 2004, Barcelona, one of the world's most cosmopolitan cities, will be playing host to a melting pot of culture, music, tradition and spectacle. The Catalan city is the center for the Universal Forum on Culture, and for 141 days it will be welcoming hundreds of people from all over the world.

The Spanish group, Indo, has been appointed to design the official sunglasses for the Forum. A collection of six models in cellulose acetate: a sporty, casual model for men, an elegant version for women and four unisex models for people who like to convey a youthful image. All the lenses have category 3 sun filters and come in green, gray or brown. The sunglasses will be available from May at outlets throughout the areas of the Forum.

This new, international event for men and women from all over the world addresses the construction of a society in which the multitude of cultures, idioms, races and ethnic groups can coexist harmoniously. The priority on the agenda of the Barcelona Forum 2004 is respect for diversity, sustainable development and the search for the conditions for peace. The Forum will be taking place with the collaboration of Unesco, the Spanish government and the Catalonia region.
