Do you work or design? New visual communication. 1980-2003

Dossier

Museu del Disseny is presenting an exhibition entitled "Do you work or design? New visual communication. 1980-2003”. Curated by design historian, Raquel Pelta, the new permanent exhibition offers to take us on a journey through the history of graphic design in Catalonia and Spain during the 1980s and 1990s, a period of great vitality known as the "design boom".

The exhibition starts with the 1980s, with the cultural emergence and modernisation of institutions and companies. It continues through the 1990s, with the internationalisation and consolidation of the profession, and continues up until 2003, the Year of Design, which marks the closure of a phase due to the expansion of the Internet and the arrival of new approaches in the field of design.
