CultureClub BA Exhibition
Bachelor thesis project
Print is dead? Following the spirit of its mission, to create a bridge between the digital and analog world, Print Club Torino introduced CultureClub, a new project for the creation of a library dedicated to graphic design.
The aim was to celebrate print as the catalyst for knowledge sharing while supporting at the same time the editorial industry and its public. The exhibition offered a glance at the collection of the library, a selection of publications by more than thirty publishers, national and international, on the theme of graphic design and its derivatives.

CultureClub is a project I developed together with Print Club Torino, a creative workshop for printing techniques and creative arts, based in Turin, Italy. It aimed to create a stimulating network to connect publishers, artists, designers, and workshops such as Print Club, around the physical space of the library, the center stage for initiatives with the intent of spreading knowledge on the topic of graphic design and focused on bringing value for all stakeholders involved.
For the occasion of Torino Graphic Days Festival Vol. 03 I had the opportunity to curate the exhibition for the presentation of the library. The goal was to simulate the experience of the library itself. We were able to display more than 200 publications that were donated to us by the almost 40 publishers that believed in this project.
The result was a glimpse into the future of the library, from the catalog system to the selection of topics and publishers, all completely accessible to the public.
