Pylade

Nicky Lindeman and I just finished designing the poster for the play PYLADE, by the late Italian film director Pier Paolo Pasolini, for its U.S. premiere at La MaMa, 40 years after the author's murder. The production is directed by Ivica Buljan, director of the Croatian National Theatre, and begins performances on December 3 at La MaMa's Ellen Stewart Theatre. 

"Pasolini’s PYLADE, a contemporary reinterpretation of the relationship between Pylades and Orestes from Greek mythology and the ORESTEIA." –La MaMa

Play is performed by Great Jones Repertory Company with special guest artist Marko Mandić, and it was art directed by La MaMa's Mia Yoo.

EXD15 biennial English website is now online!
Book your place for the Lisbon Conferences now.



AS FAR AS THE EYE CAN’T SEE, Exhibition — Lisaboa

"The curators of this exhibition, Mirko Ilić, João Castro and Marco Balesteros, invited a set of 28 communication designers to research and reflect on the main theme of the Biennale, exploring the relationship between the mind, the individual and creativity.
The participants present over 60 pieces, comprising different communication platforms, ranging from posters and books to tapestries and postcards, corresponding to two main typologies: original works specifically created for this exhibition and more directly related to the theme; and pre-existing pieces that in some shape or form embody the thematic dimension of the Biennale.
The exhibition is divided into two geographically separate presentations: in Porto AS FAR AS THE MIND CAN SEE and in Lisbon AS FAR AS THE EYE CAN’T SEE, containing a range of content that is distinct and complimentary. The body of the exhibition is accompanied by the publication of a newspaper, with texts and reflexions from the curators and participants."
