The in-person chat will be attended by the coordinator of the poster category jury, Leopoldo Leal, and judges Gabriela Castro, Giovanna Cianelli, Nasha Gil, Vinicius Theodoro and Pedro Mattos
On Thursday, June 30th, at 7:30 pm, the Museu da Casa Brasileira promotes an in-person Conversation Circle with the jury of the Poster Contest of the 35th MCB Design Award.
The conversation’s main mission is to present the theme, “Project, process and path”, which aims to support participants in the design of their posters. The theme provokes participants to reflect on the production process itself and how the different design choices – intuitive or rational – lead to different results. The conversation with the judges will also illustrate how the life course, training, references and practical experience are reflected in the production of each designer.
During the event, the coordinator of the Poster category jury, Leopoldo Leal, and the judges Gabriela Castro, Giovanna Cianelli, Nasha Gil, Vinicius Theodoro and Pedro Mattos will talk about their experiences with the field of design, training and processes, as well as explain the edition theme, registration rules, among others.
The panel of judges for the Poster Contest is also made up of members from other states, such as Clara Moreira (Recife/PE), Filipe Cartaxo (Salvador/BA) and Maxwell Alexandre (Rio de Janeiro/RJ).
