Visual identity, spatial design and exhibition graphics at the National Museum of Contemporary Art (EMST). The exhibition was hosted at the Contemporary Exhibition Space in February 2020, under the title “EMST Open, EMST as a storyline”, presenting the museum’s story since it first started operating. The exhibitions, the activities, the educational programs and the move of the museum from space to space defined the museum until its installation at its permanent home. Curated by Kassiani Benou, the timeline reintroduces the museum’s past that formed its present. The exhibition incorporates a diverse range of content as it presents its narrative. It is chronologically divided breaking the history into distinct eras, while one looks at where the museum is now and where it started. The graphics support the curatorial approach and provide a visual framework that helps organize the material. Strong typography and discreet diagonal lines are used to establish a cohesive look-and-feel for the exhibition.
