The Pictoplasma Berlin Festival brings together an international scene of artists, directors, designers and agencies, offering a unique forum for all those working with – or simply loving – the visualisation and application of contemporary character design.
Whether illustration, animation, graphic design, urban vinyl, street or fine art – the emphasis is not on the limits of style or format, but on the shared dedication to explore character-driven aesthetics.
The lively exchange between the various disciplines highlights the importance of characters in contemporary visual culture.
Over the course of 2 days, an international line-up of established and up-coming artists, directors, animators and designers will present their character-centric work in concentrated lectures and talks.
Attendees have the chance to learn more about the inspiration, production process and personal approach of some of today’s most outstanding creators.
