Pop Up Evolution

POP UP EVOLUTION
curated by Dores Sacquegna

Living is untying knots, sewing dreams, weaving stories

The exhibition is set up from 16 to 30 May 2025 with the inauguration on 17 May at the Palmieri Foundation in the old city of Lecce, Italy.

An exhibition that explores the relationship between art, graphic design and the publishing world, specifically investigating the physical and material dimensions of the artist’s book and beyond. So many artistic genres articulate this exhibition: from contemporary ex libris to artists’ books, from visual poetry to animated poems, from single-page illustrated posters to three-dimensional installations, and so on.

The exhibition traces a possible history of how radical approaches to the book have led to different graphic solutions that subvert, invent, reverse and celebrate the letters, words, texts and forms of a publication. The book thus has been and continues to be an object of experimentation, a way to resist the constraints of the market and create a space of freedom in which to take refuge.

Prizes and awards are provided.  All artistic techniques are accepted.
