3. PLASTER Festival

The third edition of International Festival of Poster and Typography PLASTER 3 is dedicated to issues concerning cultural and artistic relations between Polish and Belarusian graphic design. Despite the geographic proximity and strong historical connotations between both countries, the question of mutual references in the field of widely understood design seems to be still little penetrated. The Festival is going to cause symmetrical actions – we will see the art of Polish and Belarusian designers in equal proportions.

The opening of the Festival – on the 23rd of May (7 p.m.) - will be accompanied by vernissages of four exhibitions. On the CoCA's ground floor we will have an opportunity to see an exposition of prominent Polish poster designer Lech Majewski who, in a very individual style, presents relation that exists between graphic form and manually prepared typography. After the opening, in the space of Kino Centrum, at 8 p.m. will take place a meeting with the Artist.

Chrono

Chrono by Process is another addition to the range Recta/Neuzeit-esque faces, including Calibre by KLIM, Graphik by Christian Schwartz and digitized Recta itself, by CanadaType, to name a few. Eric Olson's vision is DINified a bit, and it's good to have alternatives, right?
