Complete with the original translucent onionskin bifolium printed with the flags of Italy and the Netherlands and an original signed intaglio print, numbered 34/150 in pencil. Housed in the original printed portfolio with striking modular typographic cover design apparently by Bruno Monguzzi. A remarkable collaborative production documenting a pivotal moment in postwar European graphic design, bringing together many of Italy's most influential designers in a limited-edition portfolio produced for AGI's Amsterdam congress. The individual contributions employ a wide range of formats, paper stocks, folds, die-cutting, and conceptual interventions, reflecting the experimental graphic language of the 1980s. Institutional survival appears exceptionally limited, with OCLC locating only a single holding. Light rubbing and scattered offsetting to the portfolio as issued; contents bright, clean, and complete. A scarce and visually arresting AGI production.
