To celebrate the milestone of the 40th edition, Cartoon Club has entrusted the design of the poster to a recognised master of international comics: Vittorio Giardino. 
Giardino's comics are characterised by the choice of historical settings and the 2024 Poster depicts a girl intent on reading a comic book while sunbathing on a pedalo, with the Rimini waterfront, the Ferris wheel and the Grand Hotel in the background. 
Cartoon Club is dedicating a solo exhibition to him with a wide selection of original boards tracing his extraordinary career. The exhibition at the Augeo Art Space gallery can be visited free of charge. The inauguration, scheduled for the evening of Monday 15 July, will be attended by the artist, who will also participate in a number of public meetings over the following weekend.
