ITALICS – ITALIAN IMPRESSIONS
from 22.10 to 25.10
Exhibition curated by Cabaret Typographie and Bonvini 1909
10:30–13:00 • 14:00–19:30Bonvini 1909 Italics – Impressioni italiane is a recognition dedicated to contemporary printing in Italy, born from the collaboration between Cabaret Typographie and Bonvini 1909. The exhibition brings together over forty artists, designers, printers, studios, laboratories and archives who today use letterpress as a tool for research and experimentation. Through a selection of limited edition printed posters, the project returns a map of contemporary practices, recounting the encounter between languages, materials, techniques and design approaches. Italics wants to enhance letterpress not only as a historical and artisanal heritage, but as a living design language, capable of reinterpreting tradition and dialoguing with contemporary visual culture.
