We’re so pleased to add the work of Keith Godard to the Archives. Godard, a renown designer of public art and exhibitions, and a pioneer of the teaching of graphic design history, is the Principal of StudioWorks and a faculty member in SVA’s MFA Design department. We’re kicking off with seventeen of his posters. A Godard poster is an interactive affair – textural and conceptual. There’s plenty more to come from Godard, including books, exhibition design, and wayfinding, but here’s a sample of his exuberant posters, always pressing against the boundaries of the paper.
