International graphic design week
Graphic Foods
Conferences, workshops and exhibitions, meetings, open studios, movies about publishing, environment, packaging, business.
After the success obtained with the 2009 Naples edition and following the many events organized by AIAP - Italian Association of Visual Communication Design - since 2003, the second edition of the INTERNATIONAL GRAPHIC WEEK will take place in Bologna. The capital of Emilia Romagna region will host DESIGN FOR BOLOGNA, a unique event for Italy and a quite exceptional one for the rest of Europe, from October 5th to 9th, 2010.
"Eating with eyes is the best way, metaphorically speaking, to explain the theme of this edition - as the AIAP President, Daniela Piscitelli, explains - because it suggests how taste becomes the last, not the first, of the senses involved. Therefore, often enough, to create food we start from a visual perception and then we link a flavour to it".
A very rich programme, dedicated to students and professionals, including workshops, lectures and round tables, open studios, will focus on topics such as: visual communication for food industry, design for publishing trade, packaging and environment.
Special guests, among the most famous and innovating international graphic designers and studios, will lead the workshops: Borja Martinez for LoSiento (Spain-Design For Packaging), Gordon Young (England-Design For Environment), Hans Wolbers for Lava (The Netherlands -Design for Editing), I profit (Italia-Design for Enterprise).
