Revolutions in Graphic Design

Graphic design is often defined as the art of visualizing ideas, but pioneer Paul Rand thought differently – he saw designers as idea creators themselves.  Join our distinguished speakers as they discuss how Rand revolutionized graphic design and its professional practice by forging a unity of text and image, design and concept. This program is related to our upcoming exhibition Everything is Design: The Work of Paul Rand, on view from February 25–July 19, 2015.
