The late 20th century was a transformational period for graphic design. Questioning the increasingly rigid rules of modernism, designers pressed for greater autonomy in their work. At the same time, dizzying advances in technology upended existing design and production processes. Far from the established New York design world, California became a haven for avant-garde designers, a hub of innovation in both discourse and practice. The guided tour will offer greater insight into the exhibit, features the work of many influential designers including Emigre, Inc., Ed Fella, Rebeca Méndez, Deborah Sussman, and Lorraine Wild. As well as, April Greiman, an integral member of the design community as well as a member of AIGA LA’s Advisory Board.
