The catalogue of the 21st International Biennial of Graphic Arts, which was on view at the International Centre of Graphic Arts, the Museum of Modern Art, Cankarjev dom and the Rihard Jakopič Fine Art Gallery and included works by 382 artists from 54 countries. The works were evaluated by a five-member international jury.

The main biennial exhibition, the personal retrospectives of the award-winners and the accompanying exhibitions were designed by Zoran Kržišnik, Mitja Rotovnik, Majda Jerman and Pavel Toplak. The personal retrospectives of the first five award-winners of the previous edition (Frank Stella, Tetsuo Yamashita, Seungyeon Kim, Bogdan Borčić, Izabella Gustowska), a commemorative exhibition of Lojze Spacal’s work and the thematic exhibition A Portfolio of 55 Protagonists of Constructed Art were mounted and the accompanying texts and texts by individual national selectors of the main exhibition were published in the catalogue.

The catalogue is lavishly illustrated in black and white and includes a few colour reproductions of the exhibited works. On the cover is a reproduction of a work by Andrej Jemec. The catalogue cover and the poster were designed by Peter Skalar, while Božo Kralj designed the catalogue.
