2. As “birthday gift” for the first 25 years (1995–2020), Tipoteca Italiana asked 25 designers and printers, from all over the world, to design and print a poster. The project 25×25. Tipoteca 25 was conceived in this way. Starting from Sunday, June 21, the twenty-five posters will be shown in the Gallery (plus an “extra” poster made by Tipoteca) in a temporary exhibition open until October 2020. I’m so grateful to be part of it and looking forward to visiting this amazing place anytime soon - link
