On the 28th of January at 18:00 at TYPA Gallery we are opening a new exhibition called “Newfound Type”.

The exhibition highlights practices and phenomena unique to Estonian wood type, aiming to inspire the creation of new local typefaces and innovative printing techniques.

Exhibition “Newfound Type” delves into the unique wood types in the TYPA collection, tracing their history and showcasing historic posters they were used on. The Newfound Type project has developed its own modular type, that was printed on the CNC-Machine, by combining traditional printing methods and historical research with modern technology.

Both historic wood types and the newly created designs will be on display, along with a series of workshops and talks.

This research has been supported by the Estonian Ministry of Culture.

TYPA gallery is open Wed-Sun from 12:00–18:00, free of charge.
