Publication Design
Graphic Designer, Exhibitions and Publications Coordinator
Frye Art Museum, Seattle, WA
I designed and produced all exhibition collateral, including exhibition didactics, title walls, photo reproductions, brochures, advertisements– and notably exhibition catalogues. Taking inspiration from artist works, I designed and produced full-color, hardbound catalogues that documented museum exhibitions. Throughout the editorial and pre-press process, I worked with colleagues to integrate edits from the curatorial team, as well as managed the logistics of the printing process with print vendors.
Here I’m showcasing two publication projects I made for the Museum.
Exhibition catalogue for Genius / 21 Century / Seattle.
Genius / 21 Century / Seattle exhibition catalogue. 300 pages + cover. Black + 4 color. Quantity: 3,000. Printed by Hemlock: Vancouver, Canada.
I designed this catalogue for a year-long museum exhibition. I managed all printer relations to deliver final packaged project files as per printer specifications.
I performed Photoshop clean-up and color corrections to installation and artwork photos to represent artworks accurately in final print.
In addition for this exhibition, I designed and produced all exhibition collateral, including didactics, title walls, exhibition catalogues, photo reproductions, brochures, and advertisements related to this year-long event.
Exhibition Catalogue for Cris Bruch: Others Who Were Here.
44 page + cover. Black + 4 color. Quantity: 2,500. Printed by Hemlock: Vancouver, Canada.
I implemented Chicago Manual of Style to proofread and coordinate all non-publication texts by curatorial staff: exhibition copy, artwork labels, and way-finding signage.
I took direction from the bright, full-color artwork photography to produce a clean, bright design style that best expressed the artist's artwork in publication form.
