Vittorio Fiorucci left his mark on the world of graphic art through his posters promoting films, theatre, opera and festivals as well as other cultural events. He also created posters supporting various causes. He left a bright, colourful body of work, a passionate refl ection of Montreal’s dynamism from the 1960s to the 2000s. The activity is offered in conjunction with the Exhibition Montreal Through the Eyes of Vittorio.

In the workshop, the students will explore stylization, colour and symbolism by creating a small brightly coloured poster.
