Talk:
Physical, Intellectual and Emotional: The complete type experience at MoMA
with Elle Kim
In June 2019, MoMA will close temporarily in preparation to reopen as an expanded museum that is inspired, in new ways, by our founding mission to be an experimental museum of modern and contemporary art in New York. Elle will share her journey of working for the in-house design team and take us behind the scenes — capturing how their work creates museum experiences that embody expansion, energy, and dynamism.
This talk is scheduled as part of the main Typographics conference schedule. You must register for the Typographics conference to attend.
