For many, Milton Glaser is the personification of American graphic design. Best known for co-founding New York Magazine and the enduring I (heart) NY campaign, the full breadth of Glaser's remarkable artistic output is revealed in this documentary portrait. Artfully directed by first time filmmaker Wendy Keys, the film glances into everyday moments of Glaser's personal life and capture his immense warmth, humanity and the boundless depth of his intelligence and creativity. AIGA Knoxville is proud to be hosting this screening in the Knoxville Museum of Art Auditorium, 1050 Worlds Fair Park Drive. Admission: Student AIGA Members: $3, Professional AIGA Members: $6, Non-AIGA Members: $10. In conjunction with the screening of this documentary, our chapter held a student competition for poster design to promote the event. Winner of the Student Poster Competition is Hunter Acosta.
