Starting in less than two weeks The Museum of the City of New York will open an exhibition called “Everything Is Design: The Work of Paul Rand” highlighting the career of the famous graphic designer. Its scope seems ambitious, being organized into five major sections: “Early Life and Career,” “Transforming Madison Avenue,” “Books and Publications,” “Creating Corporate America,” and “Writing and Teaching.”
The show was curated by Donald Albrecht, who is the City Museum’s Curator of Architecture and Design, co-chaired by Michael Bierut, Steven Heller, Curt Schreiber, Willy Wong, and Keith Yamashita, and designed by Perrin Studio. It has a generously extended run from 25 February through 19 July, so you have plenty of time to see it. (Those who still won’t be able to make it to New York during that time might do well to settle for Steve Heller’s superb monograph “Paul Rand” instead.)
