Next week, a workshop with Elisava students takes place in Barcelona — here’s a look back at last spring’s project.

The design of the exhibition „Just delivered: The Most Beautiful Swiss Books Visit Barcelona“ was the outcome of a workshop led by Serge Rompza from NODE Berlin Oslo with the students from the two editions of the Master in Editorial Design in 2025. This display presented the winners of The Most Beautiful Swiss Books awarded in 2024.

During the short week, the students studied the individual books and interpreted them as graphics on the wall, both in print and in the form of a collaborative video. The exhibition displays were also part of the assignment.

Students:
Lillian Ingabire
Brenda Alejandra Sánchez
Valentina Castanedo
Catalina Russo
Léa Rétif
Clara Sáez Calabuig
Dain Jung
Sara Fernández Altuna

📯Special postage stamp for the 250th birthday of E.T.A. Hoffmann

📯Sonderpostwertzeichen zum 250. Geburtstag von E.T.A. Hoffmann

Ernst Theodor Amadeus Hoffmann (1776–1822) gilt bis heute als einer der wichtigsten Vertreter der sogenannten »Schwarzen Romantik«. Doch der Autor vielfach gelesener Erzählungen, die von Jacques Offenbach und Pjotr Iljitsch Tschaikowski vertont wurden, war weit mehr als Schriftsteller: ausgebildeter Jurist, talentierter Zeichner, leidenschaftlicher Musiker und Komponist. Seine literarischen Werke sind geprägt von psychologischer Schärfe, feinsinnigem Humor und formaler Innovationslust – lange vor anderen experimentierte Hoffmann mit Verfahren wie der Collage.

Das Spannungsfeld von Realität und Phantasie, oft bis an den Rand des Wahnsinns, prägt Werke wie Der Sandmann, Die Elixiere des Teufels oder Die Bergwerke zu Falun. Auch in Nußknacker und Mausekönig und Der goldene Topf erweist sich das bürgerliche Idyll als brüchig. In den Lebens-Ansichten des Katers Murr verschränkt Hoffmann virtuos die Geschichte des Musikers Kreisler mit der Selbstinszenierung eines Katers. Zudem verfasste er mit Das Fräulein von Scuderi den ersten Kriminalroman der deutschen Literatur.

A text-based animation for the exhibition at the Nobel Peace Center, Oslo, which shows terms and quotes on the topic of peace throughout history.

War is Peace?  is a group exhibition featuring works from the 19th century to the present day - from Francisco Goya’s harrowing depictions of war, through Yoko Ono’s activist pieces, to Barbara Kruger’s bold, graphic messages.

Is violence an inevitable part of human nature? Can peace be more than just the absence of conflict? Can we imagine a peace founded on care, justice, and belonging? In a time of global disorder, War is Peace? challenges us to confront uncomfortable truths and envision paths to peace that we may not yet have words for.

The exhibition features works by Antoine d’Agata, Carolina Caycedo, Marius Engh, Ernst Friedrich, Francisco Goya, Nanna Heitmann, Barbara Kruger, and Yoko Ono.

The title „War is Peace“ is taken from George Orwell’s iconic novel 1984. The Party that rules the dystopian one-party state of Oceania, as described in the book, uses language as a tool of power to suppress the population. One of their slogans is War is Peace. War keeps the population united and obedient, which creates a kind of internal peace and stability within society.

Featured here is the Bayard typeface by Vocal Type.
“Bayard is a distinctive sans-serif inspired by signage from the 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. Outside the march, Bayard was a close advisor to Martin Luther King Jr. and one of the most influential organizers of the civil rights movement—leading numerous protests in the 1940s–1960s. In the 1980s, he became a public advocate for gay and le***an rights.”co
