New Views 2: Conversations and Dialogues in Graphic Design
An international symposium defining graphic design for the future
 
Papers and posters are solicited for an international symposium which seeks to look in depth at the broader questions that graphic designers are facing today in terms of the graphic design profession and educational practices. At the same time, the symposium is meant to generate debate and to provide direction, solutions, and identify what new challenges might lay ahead for practitioners, academics, industry and the profession overall. New Views sets out to offer a platform for enabling academics and practitioners from a broad range of international perspectives and approaches to discuss the current state of their practices. Deadline for Paper Abstracts: 1 February 2008
