Rick Griffith · 2020 · Letterpress print · Limited edition

The first in a series of limited-edition letterpress prints Griffith made during his tenure as PRINT Magazine's inaugural Artist-in-Residence. The poster reads like a typographic manifesto, layering multiple wood and metal typefaces, sizes, and colors into a dense, rhythmic field closer to concrete poetry than a conventional broadside. Printed at MATTER's letterpress studio in Denver, each print in the series ships with an essay and reading list exploring design's relationship to control, empathy, and systemic power.

I love design so much. I believe good design should have no victims.Rick Griffith
