One Torino is the first edition of an exhibition produced by Artissima and realized in collaboration with, and hosted by, the contemporary art museums and foundations in the city of Torino, from the 7th of November to the 12th of January 2014.
It reflects the different points of view by seven different curators. This multiple view is visually translated by an often changing geometric solid: it’s based on the ceiling of the Teatro Regio in Torino designed by the architect Carlo Mollino.

From 9 to 13 October 2013, in occasion of the ATypI conference in Amsterdam, it has been organized the poster exhibition “Compulsive Bodoni and the Parmigiano Typosytem”, curated by Riccardo Olocco, Jonathan Pierini. To celebrate the anniversary of Giambattista Bodoni (1740-1813) the two italian type designers invited several designers to think a poster using their typeface system called “Parmigiano”.

From the 6th to the 8th of September 2013, in Seneghe -Sardinia, the beautiful italian island- there is the “Cabudanne de sos poetas” a poetry festival crossing the fields of music and theatre.
Leonardo Sonnoli designed the identity through an alphabet interpreting the reverberation of the voice sound with double glyphs for each letter. All stuff designed -from postcard to hooded sweaters- have another phonetic interpretation of the festival name.
It’s not only an homage to the futurist and dada phonetic poetry but also to the old sardinian tradition of poets acting in a sort of “free style” in public, without a written poem.
Sonnoli has been invited as speaker: his presentation -titled “How to steal from poets” about how visual and phonetic poetry influence visual communication.

The communication for the 2013 edition of the Sagra Musicale Malatestiana -from August to September in Rimini- is designed by Leonardo Sonnoli and Irene Bacchi (Tassinari-Vetta) for the Relè agency.
The series of five classic music concerts correspond at five posters and other ephemera where few black and white shapes, coming from the avantgarde music notations, are the visual leitmotif.
