Bibliothèque Kandinsky’s Summer University is a cultural programme organised by the Centre Pompidou in Paris. It is built around the source material of modern and contemporary art: archives, written documentation, photographs, films, etc. It gathers young researchers, historians, anthropologists, sociologists, critics, curators, who work together on this material. The Summer University includes writing workshops and archive visits. The result of this research is gathered into a journal, which each year is produced by a different designer.
Issue 8, “Show/Search” (2022) was designed by Olivier Lebrun. It is set in Axo Narrow (Abyme, released 2024), alongside a bespoke version of Lineto’s Biff with Script 12 Pitch and Univers Next.
