The exhibition gathers a selection of posters of the most successful and

innovative contemporary Italian graphic designers dedicating to social

and cultural issues. Red October hosts several generations of established

and emerging Italian communication designers and agencies.

The show features posters for a variety of contexts: institutions, exhibitions,

public events, social campaigns and happenings, political dissent

movements, and self-generated research.

 

Within the exhibition a special section is dedicated to the international

work of Fabrica, The Benetton Research Centre. The posters of the centre,

commissioned by UNWHO, UNICEF, The World Bank and others, address

the Earth's most urgent social challenges.

 

The designs exposed in the show are a mirror of contemporary Italian

visual language. The selection includes from the radical and minimalist in

form to the conceptually sophisticated and non-conventional, from the

ironic to the dissenting.

The event is the first of the exchange programme between

'Italy and Russia for Graphic Design' for 2011, initiated by AIAP Lazio

Italian Association of Communication Design and the Association of Poster

Designers of Moscow.

The project is part of the 'Year of Italian Culture and Language in Russia

and Year of Russian Culture and Language in Italy'.
