The Smiling Sun
Nuclear Power? No Thanks
The “Smiling Sun” logo was designed by Anne Lund in April 1975, in dialogue with Søren Lisberg, both 21 year old activists with the OOA* at the time, organising the Danish anti-nuclear power campaign. The intention behind the design was, as phrased by Anne Lund, to create a friendly and open-minded logo, expressing a polite “no thanks” in response to the question raised.
*Organisationen til Oplysning om Atomkraft = Organisation for Information on Nuclear Power.
