BCN:MCR

This is some news about an exciting event which is happening in Manchester on 21st February.
Dave Sedgwick is a Manchester based designer who has organised an exhibition featuring 5 of Barcelona's best design agencie: Hey, Lo Siento, Mayuscula Brands, Mucho and Lamosca. They are are exhibiting their work at exhibition space 2022NQ (http://www.2022nq.co.uk/), just off Dale Street in the Northern Quarter, Manchester. The exhibition launches on February 21st from 6pm with an exhibition launch evening and runs for two weeks.

This is a fantastic opportunity to see some exciting work by some great designers from another country. Here are the links to the five agencies:

You can checkout the exhibition website http://www.bcnmcr.co.uk for more information. The exhibition is free but tickets for the launch event on 21st Feb will be reasonably priced - for more information, you can email Dave dave@designbydave.co.uk

It's worth pointing out that this event has been entirely organised and currently funded by Dave alone which I think is fantastic - hats off to him. This shows two things; firstly what one person can achieve with a great idea and talking to people; second, it shows that organisations like D&AD, DBA, ISTD, Typographic Circle et al are certainly not pulling their weight.
