2. ‘Typefaces’ expo. Letters zijn overal, van koppen in de krant tot signalisatie langs de weg. Van affiches die je vrolijk toeschreeuwen tot de brief die je streng aanspreekt. Met vette lijnen, zwierige rondingen of strenge hoeken: de keuze van de letters zet de boodschap kracht bij. Typografie blijft vaak onopgemerkt, maar is een unieke kunstvorm waarin vakmanschap en creativiteit samenkomen. Reden genoeg voor het Industriemuseum om er een expo aan te wijden. 11.07.2025 - 22.02.2026, Industriemuseum - link

25x25. Tipoteca 25.
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!
