On view in this inaugural exhibition in the newly re-location Herb Lubalin Study Center of Design and Typography includes recent posters, publications, and motion graphics by faculty member Matt Owens and other internationally recognized graphic designers that spotlight an emerging trend toward expressive lettering and typography.
