Label Belles Lettres  The Art of Typography

Belles Lettres : The Art of Typography

Saturday, October 30, 2004 - Sunday, April 17, 2005

Literally "beautiful letters" in French, the term belles lettres aptly describes works of graphic design in which typography plays an aesthetic role, elevating print communication to the realm of art.

This exhibition explores contemporary type treatment, looking at how designers employ contrast, scale, layering, and formal manipulation to reiterate and transform content.

Drawn entirely from the SFMOMA collection, Belles Lettres presents posters, magazines, brochures, and books by boundary-breaking designers such as Michael Bierut, Jennifer Morla, and Martin Venezky.
