What are we going to experience in this workshop?
Inspired by Harry’s long association with human rights organisation WITNESS, this practical workshop will look at how non-profit organisations can harness the power of visual communication to tell their story and explore how design can become a catalyst for change. Participants will be sent a brief prior to the workshop and the research completed will inform the task explored during the workshop. The workshop will end with a short presentation to the group and a discussion of each person’s work.
Workshop structure:
– 16.00 Introduction by Harry Pearce.
– 19.00 Presentation and debate.
Who is this workshop for?Suitable for anyone studying visual communication.
What do you need to bring to this workshop?
Please bring your laptop and/or drawing materials, as well as your reference and research materials.
We are pleased to bring you this workshop exclusively to Spain for several reasons, two of the main ones being that, If you are involved in any way in the world of design, you will know that we bring you a heavyweighta Pentagram partner, and that doesn’t happen every day next to your house, and, on the other hand, We are pleased that the workshop takes place in such an incredible space as La Térmica. We love collaborating with spaces and institutions whose work we admire and enjoy ourselves as spectators and users of the proposals and experiences they offer, since this means extending the radius of action of Moments to other places in the city, but, beyond that, It involves establishing a dialogue with organizations and the people linked to them with whom we cannot be more in tune.We are sure that many other proposals based on joining forces can emerge from this collaboration. This workshop is many things: the guest, of course, but also the framework and the synergies that will be created throughout it. Please, listen to us, we understand a little about this, don’t be left behind and sign up because this proposal is a blast.
Harry Pearce He is considered one of the most important graphic designers in the world, and it is not in vain that he is one of the main partners of the Pentagram studio, the most important in the world. You can already imagine how we are at Moments Festival, we still can’t believe it!!
Harry studied at Cheltenham and Canterbury Colleges of Art. Before joining Pentagram as a partner in 2006, he co-founded and co-directed Lippa Pearce Design for 16 years. Pearce has worked around the world designing identities, installations, posters, packaging, books and talks for clients as diverse as the Guggenheim, Liberty, Thames & Hudson, Camden Art Centre, WITNESS, The John Lewis Partnership, Waitrose & Partners, the Royal Academy of Arts, Phaidon Press, Pink Floyd Records, Saks Fifth Avenue, Lloyd’s of London, Shakespeare’s Globe, Science Museum and the UN. For Ai Weiwei and Anish Kapoor, he created identities for their major retrospectives at the RA. His work has been exhibited in New York, Paris, London, Toronto and Naples.
Moments It is a unique opportunity to discover, without taboos, the history of different contemporary and popular urban cultures, which were born thanks to philosophy. Do it yourself (do it yourself), so deeply rooted in different subcultures such as punk rock, skate, surf, graffiti, jazz, or flamenco… Through design, graphics, music, film, photography, fashion, history, muralism, documentation, literature, crafts… we can see the irreversible and definitive change in the conception of culture and art with a capital C. As Juanjo Fuentes, director of the Moments Festival, explains, this event “It embraces an audience free from stereotypes and prejudices and offers a unique opportunity to discover incredible works and see that modernity and tradition are not incompatible, quite the opposite.”. In addition, this festival seeks and succeeds in “spreading proposals, projects, stories and people, linked to underground already the philosophy do it yourselfwhich usually have little place in the cultural and educational centres of our territory and which are one hundred percent authentic and fascinating.”
