Do you see what I see?

The School of Visual Arts hosted “The Art of Seeing” in 1962 featuring panelists John Ciardi (poetry editor of The Saturday Review), Alfred Leslie (painter), Dr. Ruth Mayer (psychiatrist) and Bernard Rudofsky (designer). Milton Glaser designed the clever nine piece announcement – a test, as the envelope declares. A few examples are below. See the full announcement on our Flickr site.
