An international typographic project CopernicusPress 2022
The fourth edition of the international typographic project.The first two were held under the banner of LemPress and were devoted to the work of Stanisław Lem. This year and last year we invited typography studios to create posters related to the activities of Nicolaus Copernicus, whose 550th birth anniversary we are celebrating.The project aims to draw attention to the values associated with traditional printing, with the letter, bringing closer history and promoting the dying craft, which are typesetting and hand printing techniques.
