'Amor' by Daiana Santana / Ednaira Mendes / Leonardo Dias, from Oi Kabum! Escola de Arte e Tecnologia, Salvador

Brazilian graphic designer Felipe Taborda has curated an exhibition of posters at Warsaw’s Rampa Art Gallery and Poster Museum as part of Poland’s 22nd International Poster Biennale.

Titled ‘Kabum! Mix’, the exhibition is the culmination of a two-year project with the Brazilian Oi Kabum! schools of Art and Technology in Rio de Janeiro, Recife, Salvador and Belo Horizonte, sponsored by Oi Futuro.

The nine posters for 2008 series, produced by the students, in conjunction with French designer, Alain Le Quernec, were exhibited throughout the world to great acclaim. For the 2009 series, the students worked with local tutors and Mexican graphic designer, Alejandro Magallanes, creating posters based on the themes of ‘love’, ‘the future’ and ‘Aids’.

The 2009 posters were spread throughout Rio by Clear Channel, the company who administrates urban advertisement in the city.

Wallpaper's "Nascida no Brasil"

“For a few magical weeks, Wallpaper* magazine shifted its operational HQ to Brazil (…) to produce as true a portrait as possible of an extraordinary country at an extraordinary moment of transition”. Its printed “Born in Brazil issue has finally hit the shelves” but according to the editorial team “the pace of change in Brazil is too great to be pinned down in a single issue” so “over the coming weeks, Wallpaper.com will be keeping track by adding more news, videos, interviews and insights, to give you as wide a view as possible of the most exciting country on earth.”

Featuring the Campana Brothers, graphic designer Felipe Taborda, jewelery designers Antonio Bernardo and Livia Canuto, fashion designers/stylists Lenny Niemeyer and Oskar Metsavaht and architect Paulo Mendes da Rocha, among others.
