Joint workshop between the Fine Arts and Visual Communication departments

Lead by Pierre-Alain Giesser and Raynald Métraux, with the technical assistance of Nicolas Wagnières.

Following an invitation of the Bibliothèque Cantonale Universitaire in Lausanne to celebrate the bicentenary of the novel “Adolphe” by Benjamin Constant, the publication project aimed at creating “book-objects” inspired by this major text of French literature. The publication was created using different traditional techniques like typography, copper engraving, linocuts and silkscreen printing.

The following students participated in the workshop: Lara Carron, Maïté Chénière, Vanessa Amandine Cimorelli, Basile Ehinger, Bastien Gomez, David Héritier, Alex Howling, Cecilia Lomholt, Roman Mollard, Rahel-Christa Oberhummer, Laure Rogemond et Eléa Rochat.
