57th annual conference of Association Typographique Internationale,
9–13 October 2013 at the NH Grand Hotel Krasnapolsky, Amsterdam
This year’s conference takes its theme, “Point Counter Point,” from an early form of polyphony in music, in which multiple melodies combine to build a composition; this interplay of point and counter point also embodies the way visual communication is created and perceived, and it reflects the back-and-forth dialogue that characterizes so much of Dutch cultural history. The conference programme too reflects this diversity of ideas, not only delving into the history of type and typography in the world’s languages but grappling with the problems and opportunities of the constantly evolving technology of communication. In this spirit, we chose British design critic Alice Rawsthorn and Dutch designer Petr van Blokland as our keynote speakers.
