The Poster: Festival of Posters, Post-Poster Forms and Experimental Graphic Design

Warsaw, Poland

What is a poster today? A vehicle for retro nostalgia? A print for home decoration? A tool for political protest? Or a hope for anti-AI design? The Poster is a new festival that connects the past, present and future of poster culture. While referencing the history of the Polish School of Posters, the programme also presents new design practices and digital tools that are changing how posters are created and understood in Poland, Europe, and around the world.
