ABOUT THE EXHIBITION

"PINK" is a project that reconstructs and displays the figures and contributions of women graphic designers who have been active in Italy from the 1940s until the present day. This is a period of time marked by significant changes for Italian society: from the economic boom featuring new products, habits, and rituals, into a modern society, with a pervasive digital experience and continuous uncertainties.


"PINK" presents more than forty graphic designers who have worked and continue to work in Italy, including some of the winners and finalists of the Women in Design Award (AWDA), a competition conceived in 2012 by the Italian Design Association of Visual Communication (AIAP), which has now reached its fifth edition


The materials displayed in "PINK" come from collections preserved at the Center for Graphic Design Documentation (CDPG) of AIAP and from private collections made available by the designers themselves. CDPG is the only Centre in Italy specifically dedicated to collecting, conserving, studying, and enhancing the value of graphic design materials in Italy.
