Monozukuri
formes d’impression
The Japanese term monozukuri literally means ‘production process’, but the concept actually covers a far wider spectrum, designating the intelligence and mastery of production mechanisms that make it possible to achieve excellence. By exhibiting contemporary graphic creations that are emblematic of printing methods, Sacha Léopold and Charles Beauté reveal technical specificities and their repercussions on the creative process. The exhibition considers both the production phase and the end products that emerge from the machinery.
“Graphic designers’ work is sometimes shown in the form of sketches and explorations, but usually in its finished form or in museum-like stagings. We have chosen to turn the spotlight on printing films, die-cut forms, embossing plates, silkscreens, and so on… order to highlight this key stage in contemporary graphic design, which involves more than the mere mechanics of the tools.”
Including work by: Charles Mazé et Colline Sunier, Flag, Vier5, James Goggin, Hans Gremmen, Richard Niessen & Esther de Vries, Frédéric Teschner, Grégoire Romanet, Fanette Mellier, etc…
