Cumulus President’s Message
Mariana Amatullo, PhD
2020 marks the centennial anniversary of the Suffrage Movement which brought women the right to vote in America. I was pleased to help promote this historic milestone with Cumulus designer Karen Davison for a national campaign that resonated throughout the election as part of the AIGA’s “Get Out the Vote” initiative.
Cumulus President’s Message
Mariana Amatullo, PhD
Around this time last October, we were in the midst of intense preparations. We were getting ready to travel to Medellín for the first meeting of our current Cumulus Executive Board which we held just before joining our members in Bogotȧ, for the Universidad de los Andes Cumulus Conference: The Design After. It would have been impossible for any of us to imagine back then the global lockdown and scale of human tragedy and incalculable disruption that the COVID-19 catastrophe would bring a few short months later.
In the last 10 years the Institute of Design and Communication of FH Joanneum has won a total of 37 Red Dot Awards. The accumulation of these awards in recent years, namely 5 in 2018, 9 last year and 7 this year, once again confirms the quality of the education of this Cumulus member. Let us celebrate together – Congratulations!
