SUMMARY:Dafi Kühne: Poster Cult
DESCRIPTION:As one of Switzerland’s foremost poster designers\, Dafi Kühne produces diverse work that plays with the contrast between old production tools and modern layouts. While printed on traditional presses from the 1960s\, his posters do not look like typical letterpress prints. Instead\, they connect to the history of letterpress production while pushing the boundaries through modern tools of what is possible. Through the use of of analog printing presses\, computers\, lasercutters\, and freshly cast hot-metal-type\, he creates wildly creative\, large-format posters. From his vast letterpress studio in the Swiss Alps\, Dafi Kühne simultaneously drives poster culture and upholds the cult of the poster. In this talk\, Dafi will give insight into his processes and his approach to Swiss typographic poster design. To help illustrate this lecture\, a selection of his posters will also be on view at the Consulate General of Switzerland in New York starting on April 23\, 2024. \nIn-Person Accessibility Note: Masks and clear masks are available free of charge at the museum.
