IED Torino at Graphic Days 2025 as Cultural Partner: Three Talks Exploring Design as a Cultural and Critical Practice

IED Torino is taking part in Graphic Days 2025 as a cultural partner, reaffirming its commitment to promoting an open, reflective design culture in dialogue with the contemporary world. This year’s edition will feature three faculty members from the Graphic Design program and the Master’s course in Communication and Creative Technologies, each presenting a talk on separate days:

Saturday, May 10 – Leonardo Angelucci – Conditional Statement

In this talk, Leonardo Angelucci offers an inside look at the projects developed by the studio UNSTEADTED, sharing the successes and challenges of the creative process. Through a narrative approach, Conditional Statement demystifies the role of the designer and invites a critical reflection on how design is told, experienced, and how it shapes the future of the profession.

Silvio Lorusso explores how the widespread availability of digital tools has turned graphic design into an accessible, everyday practice. The talk delves into phenomena such as Ugly Design and Defaultism to describe an ecosystem in which the designer shifts from author to cultural mediator within an ever-evolving visual landscape.
