CSG.lab in collaboration with La Tipografica presented — for the year 2015 — an elegant calendar named ‘Ràccontàti da 30’anni‘. The calendar features thirteen emerging illustrators and graphic designers who offer here — one for each month, plus cover — their own interpretation and reveisiting of famous paintings or art-works, giving them a new look by using traditional or digital techniques. Other established illustrators and graphic designers alongside them, dedicating twelve original works as a good omen for the future, in order to evoke hope and creativity of today visions, that go to shape the incoming future.
My contribution for the calendar consists of a graphic reinterpretation of Lucio Fontana‘s work ‘Concetto Spaziale: Attese’ (1962), reproduced vectorially by just using simple dotted lines on a red background. The design presents an intentionally invasive lettering and a ‘mood’ largely inspired by advertising. It encourages the viewer to ‘take action’ and pesonally cut the sheet following the simple lines. It was my intention here to propose Fontana as a ‘do it yourself’ work, reproducible and repeatable by anyone.
