The tenth edition of the international visual and social design festival, Graphic DaysⓇ, will take place in Turin from May 8 to 18 under the title love, now! The main venue will be Vitali Park, a commercial-use building located at Via Orvieto 19, which will be hosting a festival for the first time.
The theme
love, now! an invitation to acceptance, tolerance, and openness toward diversity. In response to the various forms of social, political, and cultural violence and the exclusion of diversity that characterize contemporary society, the festival conveys a positive message, emphasizing the different ways these issues can be addressed. The concept of “love” is explored in its various meanings and nuances—as a feeling of closeness, a facilitator of interpersonal relationships, and a vehicle for dialogue and exchange between individuals, communities, and the environment.
The word Now highlights the urgency of action, reminding everyone that these issues can no longer be postponed.
