Letterpress Studio Tour with Dafi Kühne
6–7:30pm
Join Swiss poster designer Dafi Kühne on a tour through his vast letterpress studio, where he designs and produces hand-printed cultural posters.
Dafi will open his studio doors, show us around, and talk about his process and his approach to making letterpress printed posters in the 21st century! This is an incredible opportunity to see one of the coolest letterpress printers in action. Questions welcome, curiosity required!
Dafi Kühne is a Swiss poster designer. In his studio babyinktwice he has collected more than 25 tons of letterpress equipment to produce all of his designs. His analog ways of designing and printing posters are unusual, definitively progressive, and the finished posters look anything but letterpress printed. Over the last decade he has developed many techniques for making blocks that he entertainingly documented in his educational video series The Dafi Kühne Printing Show™.
