Franz West: To Build a House You Start with the Roof
pulp ink, Brooklyn, New York, 2008
Description
This catalogue accompanies the Baltimore Museum of Art’s traveling exhibition of the Austrian artist Franz West. The design needed to reflect both the tactile and playful aspects of his work. Natural linen, a material utilized in many of his sculptures and paintings, is used for the book cloth; all of the typography is silk-screened.
Juror Notes
Bold color and font choices on the linen cover; a
nontraditional approach to an art monograph.
