About this Event
NABA Paper Jam è una mostra dedicata alla vitalità dell’editoria indipendente, promossa dall’Area Communication and Graphic Design di NABA, che riunisce riviste, fanzine, poster, libri d’artista, stampe, sticker, mappe, libri game e altre sperimentazioni su carta realizzate da studentesse, studenti e alumni NABA.
All’interno del programma di BIG, Biennale Internazionale Grafica, il 23 ottobre, dalle 10.00 alle 20.00, lo Spazio Arena del Campus NABA di Milano si trasforma in un ecosistema vivo dedicato alla carta e alle sue possibilità: una mostra che esplora la carta come spazio contemporaneo di ricerca, sperimentazione e racconto visivo, superando la nostalgia per l’analogico e mettendo in luce nuovi linguaggi e forme di pubblicazione.
Durante la giornata, il programma si arricchisce di attività aperte al pubblico. Studentesse e studenti del Triennio in Comics and Visual Storytelling saranno protagonisti di una sessione di live drawing, mentre i visitatori potranno partecipare a un workshop di legatoria, per sperimentare direttamente tecniche e pratiche legate alla produzione editoriale.
Il programma si conclude con l'appuntamento alle ore 17:30 per una sessione pubblica di pitching, durante la quale una selezione di progetti sarà presentata a una giuria di professionisti dell’editoria e della comunicazione visiva: Francesca Spiller, Founder di Reading Room, Domenico Liberti, Partner di Studio FM Milano ed Emiliano Biondelli, Founder di BlisterZine.
