During the last decade the Graphic Design field has attracted growing attention in the Arab world. We witness the uprising of professional Graphic Design, starting to influence the contemporary Arabic visual culture in commercial, social, cultural and governmental sectors.
Yet the characteristics of Graphic Design is shifting as well. The traditional role of form-giving or art-direction has expanded, influenced by the societal and technological shifts. Today we see the Graphic Designer as an interface between many disciplines, including several positions in which the Graphic Designer can act:
Researcher - Consultant - Information Designer - Brand Designer - Game Designer - UX designer - Educator - Artist - Editor - Curator - Entrepreneur - Publisher - Event Designer and Type Designer to name a few.
The conference aims to discuss, reflect, foster, and document current and future influences on the roles of Graphic Designers, but also challenges Arabic Graphic Designers are facing:
