Book Launch “Mapping Graphic Design History in Switzerland”

It was an amazing book presentation, with great attention from the Zurich and Swiss designer community. The space at one moment was so crowded that it was difficult to get more people in. Have a look at the program of the publisher, Triest Verlag! And thanks so much to Maria and Miwa for their friendly support behind the bar! Mapping Graphic Design History in Switzerland is not just another book that retells the success story of Swiss graphic design. It is a collection of eleven selected essays deriving from academic research that explores historical dimensions of graphic design in Switzerland – from producing it, to archiving and exhibiting it. The book is also an endeavor to open up a space for graphic design history by providing new perspectives, ideas and tools that enable historical research in such a crucial field for Switzerland as graphic design and typography. On this occasion, the editors Davide Fornari and Robert Lzicar and publisher Triest invite you to celebrate the launch of the book. A presentation of the book will be followed by a number of talks by contributors and sponsors on why they did support / contribute. The evening will end with a toast on the publication.
