URBINO URBINO - Werkplaats Typografie / ISIA Urbino Summerschool 2009
Urbino as artwork.
The reproduction of Urbino in Urbino changes the content of the art. Rafael was born there, and so all the shops use his selfportrait in order to sell more ice cream/jewellery/vegetables/clothes.
Meanwhile, Urbino is reproduced inside Urbino by all the postcards with pictures of the city, which all look the same.
Photos of postcards and Rafael inside shopwindows are replaced on postcards. On the backside of the cards is written the name and place of the portrait, with in its shadow the place where the real painting is shown.
In collaboration with Loes van Esch
