We would like to invite you to visit the poster exhibition The Absurdity of the Moment — Letterpress Posters by Dafi Kühne which will take place at the Museum für Gestaltung in Zurich until August 1st, 2021. In addition to the exhibition in the museum, there is also the possibility to view the posters online.
In early 2020, the new, highly contagious Coronavirus began to spread across the globe. Even Switzerland, an affluent country with little experience in dealing with crises, has been affected. One year after the lockdown, Swiss designer Dafi Kühne is showing a series of ten handmade letterpress-printed posters that serve as a visual diary. They convey his own changing state of mind, reflecting both the collective feeling of insecurity, and powerlessness, as well as experiences of a new form of deceleration and lived solidarity.
