The 25th International Biennial of Graphic Arts

The catalogue for the 25th International Biennial of Graphic Arts focuses on a documentary and historical overview of the International Biennial of Graphic Arts through the years, the group exhibition of graphic arts, and a symposium on the relationship between publishers and artists. The exhibition of the contemporary graphic arts was based on the significance of the multiplied image as a means of communication. The common feature of the exhibited works, which included artists’ books, newspapers and magazines, photocopies, original posters, newspaper interventions and projects as well as prints, was the fact that they documented artists’ ideas about their realized or unrealized, past or future projects. The Biennial was curated by Christophe Cherix.

The catalogue received the The Most Beautiful Swiss Book in 2003 award; designed by OPTIMO Gavillet Rust, Linda Byrne (Geneva).
