Words in Freedom. Munari’s Lettering Projects and Visual Alphabets

International Lecture

16 December 2022

Research Centre on Child Studies (CIEC) – University of Minho

Speaker: Professor Marnie Campagnaro, University of Padova

During Munari’s long career, lettering projects played a special role. Why were they so crucial for his poetics? How did he conceive them? How did Munari develop his approaches to design and pedagogy in his ABCs? The aim of this talk is to investigate these research questions with the purpose of investigating Munari’s attempts to bring together graphic design, illustration and education in an unique intertextual world.
