Hasta La Ideas

Graphic design legend Milton Glaser has alerted us to the launch of his new website, MiltonGlaserWorks.com. An e-commerce-enabled companion to the designer’s online home base, MiltonGlaser.com, the new site offers signed editions of Glaser’s books and other works, including posters and a new range of giclée prints of assorted musicians and William Shakespeare. We’ll take this collotype/silkscreen, “Mookie,” which Glaser describes as “a loving portrait of a monstrous rabbit.” Whether or not your budget allows for the acquisition of a signed “Beethoven with Eggplants” silkscreen, Glaser fans should be on the lookout for screenings of the documentary Milton Glaser: To Inform and Delight. Directed by Wendy Keys, the film has been making the festival rounds and premieres next Friday at New York’s Cinema Village. We’ve posted the trailer after the jump.
