The exhibition accompanied a two-days international typographic symposium TypeTalks, which took place on 18–19 June 2011 at the University of Fine Arts in Poznan.

Typefaces and textual information in general, despite their crucial importance to our culture and development, are often neglected when it comes to visual communication and graphic design. This problem is particularly acute in the Central European, post-communist environment. TypeTalks symposia were founded by David Březina as a collaborative activity designed to raise awareness of the power of typeface design and typography among both graphic design professionals and students. The first TyTalks symposium took place in Brno, Czech Republic in 2010.

The exhibition in Słodownia covered works of a world famous duo TypeTogether – Veronika Burian and José Scaglione. They both studied at the Reading University and in 2006 established their own company. The font projects by TypeTogether, as well as projects from other collaborating designers, e.g. Eduardo Berlinear, David Březiny, Pilar Cano, Nicolien van der Keur and Gerard Ungera, were presented.
