Spark: The Seventh Annual MFA Design Department Thesis ExhibitionSchool of Visual Arts (SVA) presents "Spark," an exhibition of thesis projects by 21 students graduating from the MFA Design Department at SVA.
The exhibition is the culmination of a two-year program led by co-chairs Steven Heller and Lita Talarico in which students develop socially and environmentally aware products that are intended to be both commercially viable and culturally significant.
The exhibition includes graphic, motion, web site and 3D design by an international group of graduates from diverse backgrounds.
"Spark" is curated by Dorothy Twining Globus, an SVA faculty member, Museum of Arts & Design curator of exhibitions and independent curator.
The featured designers aim to move beyond graphic design, as traditionally defined, into the realm of concept creators and producers who positively influence culture.
As an integral part of the design process, students develop a business plan, conduct market research and study intellectual property law.
They then create a brand strategy, including logo, graphic identity and promotional materials with a target audience in mind.
