Martin,

A convenient way if we are doing everything at once is

<< "Graphics`Graphics`"

DisplayTogether[Plot[x, {x, 0, 1}], Plot[-x, {x, 0, 2}]];

The following two ways let us produce independent graphics objects (without
display)  that can then be manipulated before being displayed.

gr1 = Plot[x, {x, 0, 1}, DisplayFunction -> Identity];
gr2 = Plot[-x, {x, 0, 2}, DisplayFunction -> Identity];

Show[gr1, gr2, DisplayFunction -> $DisplayFunction];

The second way avoids the need to turn the display back on

Block[{$DisplayFunction = Identity},
   gr1 = Plot[x, {x, 0, 1}]; gr2 = Plot[-x, {x, 0, 2}]];

Show[gr1, gr2];
