Strange Realities: The Symbolist Imagination
exhibition identity and marketing campaign
Art Institute of Chicago
2025
Pulling from the stong emotions and ideas depicted in the works, I developed the identity for this show by enlarging a small print (by Odeon Redon) and spacing the type over the striking image. This bold, high contrast combination of text and image was then used in the subsequent marketing campaign.
About the show:
This exhibition features works on paper by iconic Symbolist artists such as Norwegian Edvard Munch, as well as lesser-known figures like the Austrian Emilie Mediz-Pelikan, the Belgian Léon Spilliaert, and the French Gustav Adolf Mossa. Drawn from the Art Institute of Chicago’s rich and historic collection of drawings and prints, including the largest collection in America of the French Odilon Redon and Paul Gauguin, this display features over 85 works that capture the beauty and strangeness of a mysterious generation of artists.
