Makoto Wada (1936-2019) is counted among Japan's leading graphic designers and illustrators.
For him, film was a lifelong source of creativity. As a young designer he tried his hand at creating
movie posters and animated films, and his charming style soon gained widespread acclaim.
Wada ended up producing countless illustrations of international film figures along with a series of
books and dialogues on movies. His passion became a force in Japanese cinema, leading him to
direct four feature-length films of his own. This vast collection of movie and cinema posters
accompanies the exhibition 'Makoto Wada: Works on Film' at the National Film Archive of Japan

In Cheating Time: Bruno Munari the Archaeologist, a book associated with the exhibition at the
Civic Archaeological Museum of Bologna for the centenary of Bruno Munari's birth, readers will
find 3rd millennium B.C. objects alongside Fossils of 2000, ancient inscriptions, and Illegible
writings by unknown populations. The book includes quotations from Munari and archaeologist
Vere Gordon Childe, stemming from both historical and imaginative research. Alberto Munari
explains in an unpublished text that this project began with a visit to an archaeological site on
Panarea Island (Sicily), where he and his father played with history using its own analytical tools.
This experience inspired the Imaginary Museum of the Aeolian Islands, the Fossils of 2000, and
theoretical reconstructions of imaginary objects, reflecting Munari's works that see everyday
objects as traces of an imaginative history rather than conventional History.

Launching ahead of the 2024 Paris Olympics to coincide with an immersive expo organised by
professional footballer Youssouf Fofana, this project explores the African diaspora in the city's
18th arrondissement, in particular creatives connected to Senegal and West Africa, looking at
how sport and shared culture can create community. From the football matches at Square Leon,
where aunties sell their crafts and foods to onlookers, to Senegalese textile and embroidery and
new takes on classic French cuisine, the magazine examines ideas around a synthesis of French
identity, where the children of immigrants espouse a creative expression based on their blended
heritage.

From the export of goods to the movement of populations, from the establishment of workshops
to their relocation, the mechanics of cartography offer new keys to understanding the materials
and trades of fashion. Drawing on a multifaceted approach to geography, the texts collected in
this book offer insights into the artisanal and industrial traditions, gestures, materials, and actors
that define the cultures of fashion production. Looking back at the establishment of
passementiers in the nineteenth century, the logic of proximity among Parisian featherworkers,
the textile trade with India, and the craft of hairworking in the twenty-first century, this book brings
together voices that help us to better situate what unites these multiple ways of seeing fashion
and its savoir-faire. With contributions from leading figures in the world of fashion, both academic
and studio-based, this series of books helps to break down the barriers between disciplines.
