"Small" Success

Sometimes, "big" achievements leave you feeling unfulfilled. On the other hand, sometimes "small" successes—especially when unexpected—can make you feel warm and fuzzy. This is one of those cases.

In their exhibition, Hope to Nope: Graphics and Politics 2008-18, the Design Museum in London included this striking poster by David Tartakover that he created for my Tolerance Traveling Poster Show. This was flattering to me and my project. A month ago, the museum sent along this photograph of the poster in the show. But I didn't know what was written on the wall text under the poster.

Yesterday, unprompted, I received a photo from my Facebook friend Nina Lazic of the caption. When I read the caption, I had one of these "small" success feelings.

The exhibition is open until August 12, 2018.
