Rittagraf at Tallers Oberts 2024 Barcelona-Hospitalet-Anoia
Rittagraf participates in the "Tallers Oberts 2024 of Barcelona-Hospitalet-Anoia". As a store specialized in materials and systems for manual printing and the creation of customized products, Rittagraf is proud to support initiatives that foster creativity and collaboration among artisans, artists, designers, and creators.
New for This Year
This year, the organization AFAD has expanded the open-door sessions to two weekends and has decentralized the initiative, extending it beyond Barcelona and Hospitalet to include the Anoia region. Also, the first edition of "Pieza Única" (Unique Piece) is being celebrated, a proposal that allows artists and artisans to create limited edition pieces that will be for sale during the Tallers Oberts days. You can consult all activities on the official Tallers Oberts 2024 website here.
Supporting Local Creativity
At Rittagraf, we strongly believe in the importance of giving visibility to local creators’ work. Participating in Tallers Oberts allows us to connect with the community by opening our doors and workshop, offering a space where participants can experiment and learn about various printing techniques. With over a decade of experience in the industry, our team is ready to guide attendees through creative processes, from screen printing and tampography to offset printing, engraving, and traditional stamping.

"Mil Fulles" - A Collective Unique Piece
This year, the "Pieza Única" initiative has been launched for the first time, a proposal aimed at enhancing and democratizing the collection of craftsmanship and art for a wider audience. For this initiative, in July 2024, the Rittagraf team (Carlos Alguacil, Raquel Fuster, Laura Tamart, and Esther Aguilà) collaborated to create a piece titled Mil Fulles. This work is a leporello printed in manual screen printing, with two colors on both sides of Fabriano Rosaspina 285g paper. It uses a chromatic decoding technique where a red filter reveals an original drawing printed in blue, hiding the layer of red lines underneath.
The piece is folded inside a laser-cut cardboard sleeve, sealed with the workshop logo. This limited edition of 20 pieces will be available for sale during the Tallers Oberts event at a price of €45.
During these two november weekends, we invite you to visit our space and actively participate in one of our workshops. This is a great opportunity to get to know some printing techniques, their materials, and discover our personalized production services.
Participating in Tallers Oberts is a fantastic opportunity to learn, connect, and experience the power of manual printing. Come to Rittagraf and be part of this exciting creative journey.
