Exhibitions
-
The city of Porto is considered by many as Portugal's design capital.
-
For the first time in the history of the ED-Awards, all European Design Agencies of the past years in the same place
-
Two Pages is a collection of sketchbooks that started in 2012. Since then it has brought together more than 450 artists from Europe, Asia and America.
Workshops
-
This workshop originates from a perceived dearth of coherent direction within contemporary Graphic Design as a discipline. Where movements such as Futurism, Modernism, Postmodernism once defined the arts we now have no readily discernible ideologies within design to follow.
-
Based on the concept of Two Pages, this workshop will focus on visual interpretations and spontaneous mark making.
