ARCHIVE PAGE of AGRAFA 2007 edition

AGRAFA 2007 is a review of students’ accomplishments in graphic design
and has been organized by the Academy of Fine Arts in Katowice for the eighth time.
The event takes place every two years and is a review as well as competition.

  Post-competition exhibition will be held 
  in December 2007 in a new gallery ‘Rondo sztuki’ 
  in Katowice. The event will be accompanied 
  by a conference that will focus on pedagogy 
  in graphic design. Polish and foreign pedagogy 
  experts will participate in this conference.

  AGRAFA is organized by the Chair of Graphic 
  Design of the Academy of Fine Arts in Katowice. 
  From the very beginning its objective is to present 
  recent achievements in graphic design. 
  The exhibition will present works which 
  result from syllabuses of different academies 
  and students’ individual work.

  This year the contest also accepts works students 
  from other schools which co-operate with the AFA 
  in Katowice in terms of students’ exchange 
  programmes: CEEPUS and Socrates-Erasmus. 
  This cooperation created the opportunity to compare 
  international experience in presenting different 
  creative attitudes and syllabuses as well as rewarding 
  the most original and inspirational solutions. 
  It also enables us to exchange information 
  with European academies, students and teachers 
  and to present recent accomplishments 
  in European graphic design to general public.

  About 20 Polish schools have been invited 
  to participate in AGRAFA this year (Academies 
  of Fine Arts and other state and private higher 
  schools which offer graphic design classes 
  in their syllabuses). For the first time 25 European
schools cooperating with the AFA in Katowice have also been invited (Hungary, Slovakia,
Czech Republic, Great Britain, Romania, France, Greece, Portugal, Spain, Italy, Croatia).
