Each year members of the Alliance Graphique Internationale convene in a different city at the AGI Congress. Here, members meet in a spirit of friendship, curious to hear of each other’s activities, keen to debate the profession and learn more of their host city.
Since 2010, under the presidency of Paula Scher, AGI Open has run concurrently with the Congress. These industry and student-focused conferences have taken place in Porto, Barcelona, Paris, Seoul, Biel/Bienne, São Paulo, London, Hong Kong, Mexico City, Rotterdam, Trieste and Auckland.
Central to the success of AGI Open is that members freely participate in talks and events that extend knowledge and encourage generations of students and designers in attendance, some of whom will go on to become members in the future.
AGI Open is a not-for-profit event. All AGI members pay for their expenses and receive no fee for their participation.
