Legacy: Don Adleta and Karen Nulf,

60 years of graphic design

 

Legacy chronicles the contributions of graphic design professors Don Adleta and Karen Nulfā€™s 60 years of combined teaching and creative ventures at 51ĀŅĀ×. Guided by a love of type, print, letters and especially their students, the exhibition unfolds a journey from creative research in drawing and photography to professional ventures highlighting sensitivity to typography and complex communication systems. The use of letterpress as a source of design fulfillment is embedded in this visual history that provides a path to the future of graphic design.
