The Prografica Cubana Committee, Casa de las Americas and Consejo Nacional de las Artes Plasticas, with the cooperation of the Historian's Office of Ciudad de La Habana and The Fundacion Ludwig, convene to GRAPHIC DESIGN WEEK with the purpose of promoting the development of the cultural and communication values of design, thus strengthening the atmosphere of exchanges among Latin American designers and related professionals as well as the necessary spaces for knowledge, debate and confrontation.
One of the central events of the Graphic Design Week will be the celebration in Havana of the ICOGRADA Regional Meeting for Latin America, ICOGRADA Board meeting
and the ICOGRADA Seminar. These relevant meetings will have the distinguished presence of the members of the organization's board, including its president, David Grossman. The Prografica Cubana Committee will be the host organization -- in its condition of Icograda member in Cuba -- and the seat will be Casa de las Americas.
The conferences will be in English and translated into Spanish.
The attendance will be free of charge, with previous registration.
