THE SESSION X
I have been asked to present a workshop curated by Spazio XYZ as part of Oxstudio and in collaboration with graphic design duo Tank Boys.
The workshop theme is "From boring to interesting" and will address the process of creating an interesting solution to a boring brief.
At the end of the day the participants will present the work they have created to a panel for discussion and assessment. The Panel will be led by Steven Heller and Lita Talarico from the New York School of Visual Arts.
The workshop will take place at Fondazione Claudio Buziol (Venice - Italy) on Friday 4th June 2010 from 9am-5pm.
