Today I am joined by Catherine Casalino to talk about the life and work of the incredible graphic designer and artist, Barbara Kruger. From her graphic design background, how that influenced her art, to the meaning and impact of her collaged artwork. We even dive into the ironic cycle of her regurgitated work being regurgitated by the skateboard brand, Supreme, and their head-scratching lawsuit story.____Barbara Kruger was born in 1945 in Newark, New Jersey. Kruger briefly attended Syracuse University, then Parsons School of Design in New York City, where she studied with artists and photographers Marvin Israel and Diane Arbus. Kruger worked in graphic design for Condé Nast Publications at Mademoiselle magazine, and was promoted to head designer within a year, at the age of twenty-two. Kruger has described her time in graphic design as “the biggest influence on my work…[it] became, with a few adjustments, my ‘work' as an artist.”In the early 1970s, Kruger started showing artwork in galleries in New York. At the time, she was mainly working in weaving and painting. However, she felt that her artwork lacked meaning, and in 1976, she quit creating art entirely for a year. She took a series of teaching positions, including at University of California, Berkeley. When she began making art again in 1977, she had moved away from her earlier style into photo and text collages. In 1979, Kruger developed her signature style using large-scale black-and-white images overlaid with text. She repurposed found images, juxtaposing them with short, pithy phrases printed in Futura Bold or Helvetica Extra Bold typeface in black, white, or red text bars. In addition to creating text and photographic works, Kruger has produced video and audio works, written criticism, taught classes, curated exhibitions, designed products, such as T-shirts and mugs, and developed public projects, such as billboards, bus wraps, and architectural interventions.Kruger addresses media and politics in their native tongue: sensational, authoritative, and direct. Personal pronouns like “you” and “I” are staples of Kruger's practice, bringing the viewer into each piece. “Direct address has motored my work from the very beginning,” Kruger said. “I like it because it cuts through the grease.” Kruger's work prompts us to interrogate our own positions; in the artist's words, “to question and change the systems that contain us.” She demands that we consider how our identities are formed within culture, through representation in language and image.______Thank you Catherine for joining me!catherinecasalino.com@cat.casalino Catherine Casalino is the principal and creative director of Casalino Design, an independent design company in New York City, focusing on book design and branding.Prior to founding Casalino Design in 2016, Catherine worked in-house as an art director and designer at Simon & Schuster, Random House, and Hachette Book Group, and she began her career at Rodrigo Corral Design.Over the past two decades, Catherine's work has been recognized by numerous international design organizations and publications.

She has also been recognised by Communications Arts, the Art Directors Club, the One Club, the Type Directors Club and the Webby Awards. But how did it all start?As with all STIMY episodes, we start from the very beginning: with Lauren's childhood & how she ended up studying at the School of Visual Arts for, of all courses, advertising! While there, she met influential figures who had a deep influence on her decision to become a freelance artist. Turns out, being the junior director of a big ad agency in New York wasn't the dream job she'd thought it would be!  Lauren also peels back the layers on some of her most popular passion projects, beginning with Daily Dishonesty - which landed her a book deal upon graduation! That proved pivotal, as it gave her a financial cushion to launch a freelance career. Three things stood out with Lauren's life story:her talent in lettering;her ability to use passion projects to change the trajectory of her freelance career, repeatedly; andher willingness to be open about how she executes her projects, markets them and what she earns! And finally, why she is now going on a sabbatical and entering culinary school.If you've ever been curious about the business side of an artist's career, then this is the episode for you.Highlights4:58 Work hard, snack hard5:38 Doing advertising11:40 Becoming a Junior Art Director in a big New York city ad firm13:36 Daily Dishonesty16:52 Seeing Daily Dishonesty go viral18:51 Getting an illustration agent20:14 Knowing when to say no to a client22:59 Planning to go freelance24:17 Earning $100,000 by Year 3 of freelancing25:12 Growing an audience on Instagram28:27 “Will Letter for Lunch” side project31:28 Getting clients like Microsoft & LinkedIn in less than 1 year34:12 Flour Crown & Peen Cuisine39:30 Traveling 1.5 years around the world40:47 Being inspired more by every day life44:35 Taking Back Sunday46:36 Taking a creative sabbatical to go to culinary school54:48 Would Lauren ever do street art?

Highlights from the conversation:A brand is an organism composed of hundreds of elements, logos, copywriting, photography, colours, and of course, typographyBig companies spend millions of dollars on their fucking brand. Why can't they spend a little bit more money to make sure they have a font that is recognisable?They don't even have to say anything. They just have to put type on a page and people would immediately recognise the brand It's very difficult to maintain what's good about the brandThey're rooted in this idea of being digital-friendly but they're falling in line with everybody elseIf you spend $250,000 for a photo campaign, that gets used for one season. If you spend the same amount for a font that you use for 20 years, the cost is negligible More about MatteoMatteo Bologna is the Founder and Creative Director of New York-based branding studio Mucca, a singular personality whose multidisciplinary background in architecture, graphic design, illustration, and typography has helped him build one of the most respected companies in design. Over his celebrated career, Matteo's focused but fun-loving approach has earned strong client partnerships across countless industries, from startups, small retailers and beauty powerhouses to hospitality where he has designed for various renowned hotels and restaurants.

Highlights from the conversation:"Design is not what we make. Design is what we make possible for others.""Craft is just consideration of every detail. And scale is often about finding efficiencies. And those two notions are kind of at odds with each other.""Craft at scale is the same as craft anywhere else. It's just trying to bring intentionality and consideration to every decision.""We feel the tension between good business and good design constantly. Good design is so often a factor of time.""It's critical to have the leadership team in the room because the more understanding you build, the more likely you are to build something that fits the problem.""I don't believe in the idea that you need to find a compromise, because I think compromise implies that both sides of the equation gave up on something to meet in the middle."More about Ben Originally from Australia, Ben relocated to the United States eight years ago in pursuit of a specific vision for branding — to bring the creative quality and craft usually reserved for small practices to projects and clients of intimidating scale and complexity. He believes that at the heart of all good design is an equal marriage of concept and craft. A provocative and insightful idea, brought to life with art and finesse. His portfolio spans a diverse range of brands, from luxury companies to global giants including Spotify, Instagram, and Coca-Cola — garnering particular recognition for his development for uncommonly compelling, far-reaching, systemic identities. The resulting work has been internationally recognized by D&AD, Graphis, Cannes, AGDA, Communication Arts, the Type Directors Club, The One Club for Creativity, the ADC, Print Magazine, and FPO — among others. Designweek named his work for Spotify as some of the most globally defining to date. In 2019 Fast Co named the Mailchimp rebrand one of the best pieces of design in 2019. Just recently he launched a provocative evolution for investment app Robinhood, which has (so far) received a warm reception on Twitter.Ben moved to San Francisco in 2018 as Creative Director of the COLLINS SF office and has begrudgingly accepted that hiking is now a part of his life.Website | LinkedIn | Instagram Show NotesPeople:Brian CollinsLeland MaschmeyerChristian WidlicKris WongCompanies and organisations:COLLINSSpotifyMailchimpRobinhoodPixarMoMAMiscellaneous:Gen Z How can you help?There are four ways you can help us out.Give us your thoughts.

If a logo design is beautiful and skilfully crafted, will it be a successful logo? Not necessarily.A successful logo requires more. It should factor in context, an understanding of the business, its competition and target audience. Only then can you understand the challenges faced, do the necessary research, and know if the logo designed will be an effective solution.The importance of context in design is one of the many topics discussed in this interview with Diego Vainesman, the co-founder of the design studio 40N47 Design. Aside from being an agency owner, Diego also teaches "Type: Bridging Image and Context" at the Masters of Visual Narrative at the School of Visual Arts in New York. He was also the first latin president of the Type Directors Club, has also taught logo design at cities around the world, and is the author of the book ‘Logo: the face of branding’.In this episode aside from discussing the role of context, we also speak about the book and the lessons learned, Diego's experience teaching design, and we end the interview learning a more about the Type Directors Club.Show notes and interview transcription: https://logogeek.uk/podcast/why-context-mattersResources mentioned:Logo: the face of branding (Kickstarter Page)Type Directors ClubAaron Draplin SkillShare CoursesLearn Freelance with Michael Janda

He has also had a number of solo exhibitions across the U.S., and is currently a member of the art collectives “In Cooperation With Muscle Nation” and “CircleWerk.” Willie has been buying and collecting homeless signs since 1993 as part of a long term art project titled "WE ARE ALL HOMELESS." In 2014 he began a 31-day cross country trip to buy signs in 24 cities, which was the subject of the documentary Signs of Humanity, which premiered at the Dallas International Film Festival and has been accepted into 7 additional festivals. The project has been featured in dozens of international and local media, including Yahoo! News, NPR - All Things Considered, The Huffington Post, Al Jazeera America and Fast Company’s blog, posted by Katie Couric. An UpWorthy video about the project that was uploaded on August 31, 2015 has been viewed over 6.4 million times. Willie is a 1982 graduate of the University of Southwestern Louisiana. He has taught advertising design at Brookhaven Community College, Texas A&M at Commerce, TCU, and has served as visiting faculty for the MA Program at Syracuse University. Willie is currently the Stan Richards Professor in Creative Advertising at SMU's Temerlin Advertising Institute, where he teaches classes related to creativity and portfolio development. ABOUT THE WE ARE ALL HOMELESS PROJECT The WE ARE ALL HOMELESS project began in 1993 due to the awkwardness I felt when I’d pull up to an intersection and encounter a person holding a sign, asking for help. Like many, I wrestled with whether or not I was doing good by giving them money. Mostly I struggled with my moral obligations, and how my own choices contributed in conscious or unconscious ways to the poverty I was witnessing. I struggled with the unfairness of the lives people are born into, the physical, mental and psychological handicaps. In my struggle, I avoided eye contact with those on the street, unwilling to really see them, and in doing so avoided seeing parts of myself. That began to change once I began asking them if they would sell their signs. My relationship to the homeless has been powerfully and permanently altered. The conversations and connections have left an indelible mark on my heart. I still wrestle with personal questions regarding generosity, goodness, compassion, and guilt. And what it means to be homeless: practically, spiritually, emotionally? Is home a physical place, a building, a structure, a house? Or is it a state of being, a sense of safety, of being provided for, of identity? I see these signs as signposts of my own journey, inward and outward, of reconciling my own life with my judgments about those experiencing homelessness. weareallhomeless.org

"Experience design is the suite of emotions that you deliver over time.” This clear and concise answer came from this week’s guest on the On Brand podcast, Karin Soukup. As Brand Experience Director at Collins San Francisco, she spends her time answering this question with clients and helping them develop innovative solutions. We discussed all of this and more this week on the show.

Episode Highlights “Experience design is the orchestration of feelings.” As this episode is focused on design, we spent a lot of time talking about intention-setting. How do you go about designing feelings? “You have to start with the customer journey.” This follows Karin’s own career as part of the team at IDEO, where they focused on human-centered design. You have to “get embedded in someone’s life. Specifically this means shop alongs, following people through their day, the magnets on their refrigerators.” Everything! What about the naysayers? “Often they can be converted if you make them a part of it. You have to ask yourself, how people can get skin into the game?” What brand has made Karin smile recently? “Can I say more than one?” Karin shared some recent smiles that came as the result of Sun-Maid Raisins and The New York Times’s march push.

It's been a while since we first had Bobby C. Martin, Jr. on Revision Path, so I'm glad to have a chance to really sit down and talk with him to kick things off for our final month of interviews for 2018. As the co-founder and founding partner of the Original Champions of Design, Bobby's identity design system work sets him in a class all his own. Whether he's handling rebranding for the WNBA or creating an identity system for the Girl Scouts, Bobby has helped elevate companies around the world. We started off by talking about the business of OCD, including how it's changed with the times, how they find clients, and what it's like working with and building a team. From there, we took things back to Bobby's early days in Virginia, and he shared the inspirations and memories which influenced him as a designer, and we also talked about design curriculum, as well as what it feels like for him to occupy space as such a well-known designer. Bobby wants everyone to know that you can make a living from being a designer, and putting everything you can into your work is the key to success!

(http://www.advanceyourart.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/10/wbpic.jpeg) Creativity is like washing a pig. It’s messy. It has no rules. No clear beginning, middle or end. It’s kind of a pain in the ass, and when you’re done, you’re not sure if the pig is really clean or even why you were washing a pig in the first place.— Luke Sullivan, author of “Hey, Whipple, Squeeze This”MEET WILLIE: Willie Baronet was the owner and creative director of GroupBaronet (now MasonBaronet) from 1992-2006.

Nick explains how he got interested in graphic arts at an early age through music. And how he later on started focussing more on typography. We also talk about the project he did for the Hamilton Wood Type Museum and his work for MyFonts, Font Bureau, Webtype and Fonts in Use. We wonder if Nick can see how type trends go, where it’s getting influenced by, and if he thinks that we’re reaching some sort of a saturation point? Recorded at the Robothon 2015 Conference in The Hague, the Netherlands.

Today, The Trauma Therapist | Podcast shifts a bit. Today I’m interviewing world-renowned designer Debbie Millman who shares her story of courage, healing, and hope. I first heard Debbie on Tim Ferriss’ podcast and was struck by her candor, strength, and vulnerability. She was on Tim’s show to speak about her illustrious design career. However, at a specific point in the interview, the tone definitely changed when Debbie began sharing the story of her childhood. It was at that point that I was drawn in by the courage with which Debbie spoke about her past, her journey, and the hope she’s hung on to all these years. My hope is that we all can not only learn from her experience but as trauma workers, be inspired by the strength and hope in her words. Debbie Millman was named “one of the most influential designers working today” by Graphic Design USA, Debbie Millman is also an author, educator, brand strategist and host of the podcast Design Matters. As the founder and host of Design Matters, the first and longest running podcast about design, Millman has interviewed nearly 300 design luminaries and cultural commentators, including Massimo Vignelli, Milton Glaser, Malcolm Gladwell, Dan Pink, Barbara Kruger, Seth Godin and more. In the 11 years since its inception, the show has garnered over a million downloads per year, a Cooper Hewitt National Design Award and—most recently—iTunes designated it one of the best podcasts of 2015.  Debbie’s written and visual essays have appeared in publications such as The New York Times, New York Magazine, Print Magazine, Design Observer and Fast Company. She is the author of two books of illustrated essays: Look Both Ways and Self-Portrait As Your Traitor; the latter of which has been awarded a Gold Mobius, a Print Typography Award, and a medal from the Art Directors Club. Her artwork has been exhibited at the Boston Biennale, Chicago Design Museum, Anderson University, School of Visual Arts, Long Island University, The Wolfsonion Museum and the Czong Institute for Contemporary Art.  Debbie is the author of six books, including two collections of interviews that have extended the ethos and editorial vision of Design Matters to the printed page: How to Think Like a Great Graphic Designer and Brand Thinking and Other Noble Pursuits. Both books have been published in over 10 languages. For 20 years, Debbie was the President of the design division at Sterling Brands, where she worked with over 200 of the world’s largest brands, including the redesign of Burger King, merchandising for Star Wars and the positioning and branding of the No More movement. She is also President Emeritus of AIGA, one of five women to hold the position in the organization’s 100-year history and a past board member and treasurer of the New York Chapter.
