Exhibition curated by Silvana Amato
10:30 – 19:45 ADI Design Museum Id-ictionary presents a selection of 70 posters made by designers who are members of the Alliance Graphique Internationale (AGI).

The exhibition will be open until 8.11.2026 during the opening hours of ADI Design Museum.

ARE THE ITALIAN GRAPHICS (STILL) IN EXCELLENT HEALTH?

25.10 / 25.10 • 16:30

Talk by Grafica Magazine
25.10 • 16:30 ADI Design Museum On the state of the art of contemporary Italian graphics, two factions oppose each other, that of the irreducible optimists and that of the pessimistic critics, giving rise to an open debate that ranges from university education to the world of work, up to the comparison between the domestic and foreign markets. This look at the discipline, poised between theory and practice, thus turns into a multi-voice confrontation aimed at bringing out contradictions and different points of view in an attempt to find a common synthesis.
