STEFAN SAGMEISTER
Tonight was the opening night of acclaimed Austrian graphic designer Stefan Sagmeister's exhibit, Things I Have Learned in My Life So Far, at the Deitch gallery in SoHo. The exhibit coincides with his soon-to-be released book by the same name.
Sagmeister is known for his award-winning album covers for bands like the Rolling Stones and the Talking Heads. But he's also known for being a graphic designer who goes beyond the usual posters and web sites to find innovative ways to convey his ideas.
Such as a wall of bananas with a message about self confidence.
The exhibit includes a host of photos and installations that feature mantras of the many things Sagmeister has learned in his life so far.
It even has a window display with messages written in steam by special guest designers who stop by each day (tonight's first guest was Milton Glaser).
If you're in NY, it's definitely worth checking out. You'll find it in the building with a giant inflatable monkey on the rooftop.
