Art, true to its essence, knows no bounds—neither confined by the constraints of tradition nor tethered to the trends of contemporaneity.

I would like to share with you this graphic design proposal for the exhibition "Between space and surface" of 2021. The exhibition organized by the Accademia di Belle Arti di Venezia, curated by Riccardo Caldura, features the works of: Arthur Duff, Ludovico Bomben, Francesco Candeloro. The visual composition focuses on typography and introduces two other elements useful to the representation of the artistic concept: 1) Light is the main theme of this exhibition, through it works take shape in space and on surfaces. We have chosen to represent materially the ephemeral presence of light with the use of orange color. 2) Using a transparent medium, the poster takes on new identities when interacting with the surrounding space. It can be presented in different ways on different spaces and surfaces. made with my sweetie Laura Serraglio 💖 #graphicdesign #visualdesign #exhibition #exhibitiondesign #visualidentity #catalogue #finearts #venezia #venice

The British Museum (and the myriad of war, airplane and castle based museums) is mind boggling as at the height of their power, the empire merrily “collected” treasures from every corner of the world. In my opinion, the only rival would be the “collected” pieces that are stuffed into every corner of the Vatican (The irony of Greek gods everywhere is something to behold). The below gives a brief glimpse into a few of the treasures they hold and a small sliver of the fascinating history.

Hey, cut it out! (Just like Henri Matisse ✂️).

In our latest blog post written by Abigail Yoder, you can read more about Matisse and his cut-outs: https://lnkd.in/gYHRtHsX
