Description

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, MILTON GLASER: TO INFORM AND DELIGHT.  From newspapers and magazine designs, to interior spaces, logos, and brand identities, to his celebrated prints, drawings, posters and paintings, the documentary offers audiences a much richer appreciation for one of the great modern renaissance men.

Artfully directed by first time filmmaker Wendy Keys, the film glances into everyday moments of Glaser's personal life and captures his immense warmth, humanity and the boundless depth of his intelligence and creativity.

A collaboration with The Church. Milton Glaser: To Inform and Delight will screen following the opening of The Church’s exhibit Yes, No, and WOW: The Push Pin Studios Revolution, running October 6th - December 30th.
