Poster, Plastics + Design
This is a Poster. It is dated 1998 and we acquired it in 2009. Its medium is screenprint on paper. It is a part of the Drawings, Prints, and Graphic Design department.
Pierre Mendell and Klaus Oberer created this vivid design in three colorways for the Plastics + Design exhibition at Die Neue Sammlung Museum in Munich. The combination of simple shapes and fluorescent colors results in a striking graphic that echoes the synthetic colors found in plastics, while the varied proportions of each color radically change the overall effect.
It is credited Gift of Sara and Marc Benda.
