Friday 20 October 2023 at 19:00 at Trame di Quartiere (59 Via Pistone, Catania) the exhibition opens Let the City speak (let the city speakthirty young designers from all over Italy tried to to tell the story of Catania, to give it a voice and to dialogue with it through a series of poster made on paper Fedrigoni during the Summer School 2023 del Master's in Visual Communication and Art Direction curated by Studio Mut.

A selection of the posters had been reproduced and put up on the city's streets in September 2023 thanks to the artist's contribution Sandra Virlinzithe billposting they were photographed by Martin Bonanno and his shots of street photography They are on display in the exhibition along with the original versions of the posters.

During the inauguration, the following will also be screened Mauro Maugeri's documentary on the Summer School and on the making-of some projects.
The exhibition will remain on display until 3 November during the opening hours of Trame di Quartiere.

The posters were inspired by a series of meetings with several associations – including Neighbourhood Plots – operating in the neighbourhoods Civita e San Berillo, from the exploration of the urban fabric, from direct contact with the residents and have been devised and produced under the guidance of the graphic designer Thomas Kronbichler and Martin Kerschbaumer, founders in Bolzano of Studio Mut, during the workshop held from 28 July to 2 August by Catania Island (project partner).

The result is a kaleidoscope of ideas and subjects ranging from reinterpretation of the dialect lease through the typography, to celebration of food and traditions as an identity trait, to the narrative of people who live in council estates and that I am the face of it.
