OST–RA–VAR 2019

The festival of Ostrava’s theater troupes not only offers a presentation of the region’s theater productions for professionals working in the field of theater, but also includes discussions and seminars which discuss the program and feature renowned critics, writers, dramatists and students. The theaters select the produced works themselves and always manage to curate a representative, artful showcase. The logo design consists of a typographic citation of the name itself and reflects its meaning, as well as the principled approach to the festival’s dramaturgy. The whirl indexes the dynamic process of transformation and change. The logo’s simplified version allows an XXL rendering and can also be turned, opening the space for creative manipulation.
