A New Visual Identity for the 10th Edition<\/h3>\n\n

For this special edition, the festival unveils a refreshed visual identity. The new \u201cwatermelon\u201d color was chosen following discussions within the organizing association and reflects the concerns and aspirations of Italy\u2019s creative community in 2025. <\/p>\n\n

\u201cBorn from the grassroots, Paw Chew Go has always shown solidarity with oppressed communities and underrepresented minorities. This year, we incorporated the colors of the Palestinian flag into the festival\u2019s visual identity and installations. These colors are meant to foster dialogue and reflection,\u201d explained Fortuna Todisco and Federico Demartini, festival founders.<\/p>\n\n

A Rich and Participatory Program<\/h3>\n\n

Over 120 illustrators and creative studios will bring the market area to life with original works, prints, and publications. Alongside the market, the festival will feature exhibitions, talks, presentations, and workshops, exploring various forms of visual communication. <\/p>\n\n

The main exhibition is dedicated to Gio Pastori with Vernice Paciugo<\/em>, a site-specific project in BASE Milano\u2019s Sala 2100. The immersive installation celebrates dolphins, a favorite subject of the artist, using collage, silhouettes, light, and sound to create an engaging environment. <\/p>\n\n
