Buenos Aires project
“For this issue of Eye we are particularly proud to present an extensively researched piece about the graphic design of Argentina. Despite its length, what we document here is just the tip of an iceberg. ‘Buenos Aires project’ (pp.38-51) by César Sesio and Verónica Devalle pays tribute to some of the designers and teachers who – despite political and economic upheaval – have played leading roles in the emerging design culture of this fascinating country. The dialogue between Argentine designers and the Modernists of postwar Europe is a crucial, but little-documented part of this story.”
