Not My Type, Typefaces on Display

Glass Curtain Gallery • Chicago, IL

Can we define our times through a typeface?  How do we choose the perfect vessel to communicate an idea? Can a typeface design bring awareness to societal injustices?

With the multitude of new type foundries and bespoke typefaces cropping up all over Instagram and design blogs, it seemed like the timing was right to ask Graphic design majors taking their first typography to choose any typeface or type designer to feature as an installation for a gallery exhibition. The result is a diverse collection of new and old, decorative and functional, revivals and remixes.
