Concernant l'apprentissage de l'#écriture, je n'avais pas encore vu cette grosse initiative brésilienne et googueléenne avec des infos et des fontes pour 68 modèles d'écritures de 40 pays.

"#Primarium is a [...] educational project by TypeTogether which studied the methods of Latin script-based handwriting instruction for primary school children, spanning five continents and about one-quarter of the world.
In early 2022, independent type foundry #TypeTogether embarked on a [...] research project to explore the state of Latin script-based handwriting education in primary schools in over 40 countries [...]. The result of this [...] extensive project is Primarium, a freely accessible resource designed to serve the typographic and educational communities.
The study aims to collect and organise crucial information about #handwriting education in primary schools, including its role in #school curricula, the #handwritingmodels and resources used, and the teaching methods employed in classrooms. In an era where digital devices are increasingly prevalent, the issue of handwriting #education has become a topic of debate in educational, pedagogical, and typographical circles." #typography #lettering

Varvara Stepanova, flyer for "The Death of Tarelkin", 1922.

Often mentioned only alongside her husband, Alexander Rodchenko, Stepanova was an accomplished artist in her own right. Along with this flyer, she also designed the sets for the production. While it’s not known if she designed the costumes for this production, the image is very similar to the geometric clothing she created for other plays.

Brown paper with rough edges. Printed on the paper is a black figure rendered in geometric shapes and striped clothing. Cyrillic lettering surrounds the figure.
