The Wim Crouwel Institute encourages fresh perspectives on the links between graphic design’s heritage and contemporary practice. It is particularly interested in how graphic design history can be understood in the light of today’s pressing socio-political issues.

For this year’s ‘It’s All Graphic’, scheduled to follow Prof. Dr. Alice Twemlow’s inaugural lecture, the invited speakers address the role of graphic design in decolonizing, depatriarchalizing, and other reframings of the archive.
