My favorite Ralph Schraivogel poster. For many years the Museum für Gestaltung Zurich has been an epicenter for design history. Their shows and collections have curated topics of design found nowhere else on this planet. But most people are probably more familiar with their exhibition posters than the actual institution itself. These are truly astounding works of graphic design. It is through the Museum that many renowned designers have established their careers.

Cornel Windlin You can order some of these infamous posters through their website. The international shipping is pretty steep, but would totally be worthwhile. A group purchase may help distribute those costs **hint hint. They also publish a great series of booklets of the posters that I’m sure on many of your shelves.

I recently had the pleasure of seeing this marvelous MartinWoodtli poster in person. It’s a mastery of graphic percision an printing excellence and a must see if you ever get the chance. This is design for design’s sake at its best.
