Florence, Tuscany, Italy, the world. The Festival of creativity is returning. It is an event created by the region that will take place for the third consecutive year at Fortezza da Basso from the 23rd through the 26th of October with a series of free events. With a look at the rest of the world, from Asia to Brazil, the exhibition that has creativity as its common denominator, wants to open itself up to movements, processes and creative people from around the world. There will be a stand dedicated to Asia, with stories and protagonists from countries including Iran and Afghanistan. There will be a lot of space dedicated to Brazil, the country that is experiencing an economic boom. Jonathan Barnbrook, one of the most well known graphic artists in the United Kingdom will be present with an exhibition of his political work. Throughout his career he has been one of the most famous creators of typographical lettering, which is used in many different places: from Walt Disney films to political manifestos. His work on motion graphics, shots and idents created for the BBC and various commercial clients is important. There will also be musical events, concerts, and this year there will be culinary cocoa exchange, since the festival takes place at the same time as the Eurochocolat in Perugia.
