Graphic Design Festival Paris: a new international event dedicated to graphic design
Artevia and D’Days are joining forces to produce the Graphic Design Festival in January 2017. Following the first three editions of the Fête du Graphisme, the Graphic Design Festival is proposing a new event, free and open to everyone, to showcase the creativity, diversity, richness and dynamism of this multi-faceted discipline. The Graphic Design Festival is angled towards the eclectic nature of the discipline’s practices: typography, identity, visual communication, advertising, publishing, illustration, motion design, artistic direction, signage… Our ambitions are large: to become a platform for meetings between industry actors at both national and international scales, a place to share and exchange about contemporary visual creation, a tool with which to understand the issues surrounding the transmission of images and messages, and a centre for the diffusion of innovation and practice. The aim is also to consolidate the position of Paris, and more largely France, as a centre for creation, nourished by the energy of this dynamic commercial sector
