Steven will talk about the latest book (co-authored with Greg D'onofrio) The Moderns: Midcentury American Graphic Design, a survey of the principals and disciples who brought Modernist graphic design to the United States as well as acolytes who continued the legacy in the design capitals of New York, Chicago, and Los Angeles from around 1937, when the Bauhaus emigres landed in the U.S. to 1970, the height of the International Typographic Style.

He will discuss points in his book which survey how Modernism transformed American graphic design in the mid-twentieth century and established a visual language that still carries tremendous authority.

Steven Heller, co-chair of SVA NYC’s MFA Design / Designer As Author + Entrepreneur program, is the author, coauthor or editor of over 170 books. He writes The Daily Heller for Print Magazine and is a 1999 AIGA Medalist and 2011 recipient of the Smithsonian National Design Award for “Design Mind.” His most current book (with Greg D’Onofrio) is “THE MODERNS: Midcentury Graphic Design” (Abrams Books).
