Biography: Austrian-born Stefan Sagmeister is one of the most influential graphic designers working in the world today. He has designed iconic album covers for The Rolling Stones, Lou Reed, and Talking Heads, and had his work has been recognized in the New York Times, Time, and Wired. About the talk: Astonishingly, Stefan Sagmeister has only learned twenty or so things in his life so far. But he did manage to publish these personal maxims all over the world, in spaces normally occupies by advertisements and promotions: as billboards, projections, light-boxes, magazine spreads, annual report covers, fashion brochures, and, recently, as giant inflatable monkeys. In this presentation Sagmeister throws his diary, a lot of design, and a little art together with a pinch of psychology and a dash of happiness into a blender and pushes the button. It tastes surprisingly yummy. |
