Hasta La Ideas

Last night, Brooklyn’s Open Air Modern—a well-curated hybrid vintage book & furniture store—hosted a film screening of To Inform and Delight, Wendy Keys’ documentary about Milton Glaser, followed by an informal Q&A with archivist Beth Kleber and coordinator Zachary Sachs of The Milton Glaser Design Study Center and Archives.

I can’t imagine Glaser would need any kind of introduction to the average Core77 reader, but for the uninitiated: Milton Glaser is a seminal graphic designer, best known for designing the “I ♥ NY” logo and the iconic Bob Dylan poster (featured on the cover of the DVD)—not to mention the logo for Brooklyn Brewery—and countless magazine, record and book covers, posters, flyers, brand identities, etc. ad infinitum.
