About

Automatically translated from German

Patrick Rössler and Bettina Richter from the Museum für Gestaltung Zürich discuss the publication «Avant-Garde», exploring how posters, photography and typography shaped modernism in the early 20th century. Posters served as tools for propaganda, enlightenment and advertising, used by designers and photographers to intervene in everyday life. The event is held in collaboration with the Zurich Book Festival.
