Presentations May 6th

We covered three designers today. The first designer was April Greiman, who seemed to have a real knacked for combining various mediums in one harmonious unity. Victoria and I chose her as the best Graphic Designer out of the bunch because of her smooth transition from doing work by screen printing, and then later on moving to the computer. My quote that sticks foremost in my mind is the one that April's mother told her “You can’t fake the cha-cha.” The second designer we looked at was Milton Glaser, who did some amazing works such as 'I <3 New York' and the bob dylan poster in the History of Graphic Design book. He founded Push Pin Studios, and really explored color and form. Finally we talked about Seymour Chwast, another member of Push Pin Studios. This presentation was probably the best in encomusing the artist's creative style.
