Posterfest in Budapest, Hungary

The 2nd Posterfest in Budapest, Hungary just announced the posters accepted for this year's show.
I am quite pleased that three of my posters were accepted, but I am even more pleased that I see (although purely alphabetical) my posters are almost touching shoulders with my friend Milton Glaser! On top of that, a couple of posters created for my Tolerance Poster Show also made the competition.

Thank you to Posterfest for choosing to display my work.

"Design of Dissent" in The Milton Glaser Archives

On October 10th 2018, School of Visual Arts posted a feature on "Design of Dissent", in the Milton Glaser Design Study Center and Archives: a collection of works with the intention of archival in academic context. I have written "Design of Dissent" with Milton Glaser, and I am happy to have donated over 300 pieces of artwork for the future study and understanding of political design that continues to be relevant regardless of era.

"The Milton Glaser Design Study Center and Archives and the SVA Archives, the two archival collections housed within the SVA Library, have recently launched their new website, accessible at both glaserarchives.org and svaarchives.org. Visitors can now learn more about and view selections from both archives' collections, schedule appointments to visit the archives in person, and more."

"From a design perspective, they're fascinating—a global view of what’s going on," says Beth Kleber, head archivist for both SVA and the Glaser Archives.
