’50 USTICA ’61 is a collection of editorial, gamification, and merchandising products developed through a visual identity system deigned during the course to communicate the exhibition “USTICA. Da isola prigione a perla nera del Mediterraneo” helded at Museo Civico di Archeologia di Ustica, curated by Centro Studi e Documentazione Isola di Ustica, in 2019, which analyzes and recounts the events and changes that marked the island, during the decade 1950-1960. The photographs are signed by Serge Larrain, Fosco Maraini and Fedele Toscani. Additional photographs taken by some local citizen and tourists in those years are exhibited collaterally.
’50 USTICA ’61 concept is a visual representation of the relationships between the three conniving polopations on the island between 1950 and 1961, when Ustica was freed from being a confinement island kind:
* usticesi (local inhabitants)
° confinati (inmates)
* turisti (adventurous tourists)
Furthermore, the visual identity and the developed products gravitate around the concepts of emerged and submerged, which are key aspects both of the research behind and narrative of the exhibition, as well as of the daily work process implemented by Centro Studi e Documentazione di Ustica.
