Svenska Tecknare (The association of Swedish illustrators and graphic designers) organises Sweden’s professional illustrators and graphic designers and has some 1500 members throughout the country. It was founded in 1955. Our members work within a broad spectrum of visual communication; illustrations and graphic design in newspapers, books and new media, websites, cartoons, animated films, news graphics, signs, trademarks, information and marketing.
The association is first and foremost concerned with safeguarding the intellectual property rights of illustrators and graphic designers and one of the most important of these is copyright. It also concludes financial and social insurance agreements with a variety of parties who commission work or employ its members.
