Galerija Kortil u svom ljetnom programu predstavlja izložbu Yugo.Logo, koja kroz više od šest stotina znakova i logotipa pruža uvid u rad brojnih značajnih dizajnera s prostora Jugoslavije u drugoj polovici 20. stoljeća.
Izložba Yugo.Logo – Grafička identifikacija u Jugoslaviji otvara se u galeriji Kortil u petak, 27. lipnja u 20 sati, a samom otvorenju prethodit će u 18:30 sati panel diskusija Razgovor o znaku uz predstavljanje knjige projekta.
Izložba se temelji na istoimenoj online arhivi i istraživačkom projektu koji je prije nekoliko godina pokrenuo beogradski freelance dizajner Ognjen Ranković, s ciljem prikupljanja i očuvanja grafičke identifikacije te informacija o pionirima zanata tog razdoblja, kako bi njihova ostavština ostala sačuvana. Kako navodi:
Osnovno polazište projekta Yugo.Logo polazi od činjenice da su mnogi grafički simboli, nastali prije više od pola stoljeća, i danas izuzetno kvalitetna rješenja. Njihov utjecaj na današnji dizajn i na uspostavljanje kolektivnih estetskih kriterija nije zanemariv, što ovu temu svakako čini aktualnom i relevantnom.
Koautor riječke izložbe je dizajner Antonio Karača koji se pridružio Rankoviću u projektu i izradi dvije Yugo.Logo knjige. Oba izdanja donose radove 144 dizajnerice i dizajnera, kao i više od šesto logotipa. Druga, nedavno izdana Yugo.Logo knjiga bit će premijerno predstavljena riječkoj publici kroz panel Razgovor o znaku, kao svojevrsni uvod u otvorenje izložbe. Uz autore, u razgovoru će sudjelovati dizajner i profesor Damir Bralić, a vodit će ga Kristijan Benić.

Kortil Gallery presents the Yugo.Logo exhibition, which, through more than six hundred signs and logos, provides an insight into the work of numerous significant designers from the Yugoslavia in the second half of the 20th century.
The exhibition Yugo.Logo – Graphic Identification in Yugoslavia opens at the Kortil Gallery on Friday, June 27 at 8 pm. The opening will be preceded by a panel discussion at 6:30 pm, Conversation about the Sign, with the presentation of the book Yugo.Logo 2.
The exhibition is based on the homonymous online archive and a research project that was launched a few years ago by the Belgrade designer Ognjen Ranković, with the aim of collecting and preserving graphic identification and information about the pioneers of the craft of that period. As he states:
The principal starting point of the whole ‘Yugo logo’ project lies in the fact that most of the graphic symbols presented on this exhibition, created more than half a century ago, are considered to be exceptionally high-quality solutions and up to modern standards. Their influence on contemporary (local) design, but also on the establishment of collective aesthetic criteria, is by no means negligible, which makes the subject of the entire research – though seemingly archaic – very up-to-date.
The co-author of the Rijeka exhibition is designer Antonio Karača, who joined Ranković in the project and creation of two Yugo.Logo books. Both editions feature the works of 144 designers, as well as more than six hundred logos. The second, recently published Yugo.Logo book will be premiered to the Rijeka audience through the panel Conversation about the Sign, as a kind of introduction to the opening of the exhibition. Along with the authors, the conversation will feature designer and professor Damir Bralić, and will be moderated by Kristijan Benić.
