(Wendy Keys, USA, 2008, DigiBeta, 73 min)
Plus short film Paul Rand (Imaginary Forces, USA, 2007, 4 min)
For many Milton Glaser is the personification of American graphic design. Best known for co-founding New York Magazine and creating the enduring I ♥ NY campaign, Glaser has worked in design for over six decades. In the mid-50s, Glaser was a founder and director of the influential Push Pin Studios. He has designed countless book jackets, magazine covers, posters (from the iconic 1966 Dylan poster to his 1993 Angels In America poster), logos, brand identities and interior spaces (including George Lang's Trattoria Dell'Arte and the Rainbow Room at the Rockefeller Center). This new documentary reveals the full breadth of Glaser's remarkable artistic output, as well as the tremendous warmth, intelligence and creativity of the great modern Renaissance man. Milton Glazer will be preceded by Imaginary Forces short film Paul Rand, which combines original animation with an interview of Rand himself, encapsulating the concepts and contributions of the legendary graphic designer.
