Over the past 20 years, Lucerne has earned a reputation as a true poster town. The quality, diversity, and freshness of Lucerne’s posters have been repeatedly recognized at festivals, competitions, and in publications. The exhibition focuses on works by graphic designers associated with the venues Treibhaus, Südpol, and Neubad, as well as the Weltformat Festival, which has been taking place in Lucerne since 2009. As platforms, these venues promoted networking and contributed significantly to the emergence of a graphic design and poster scene characterized by a culture of cooperation and creative exchange.
