Acclaimed Swiss graphic designer Rosmarie Tissi (1937- ) works out of her Zurich studio, formerly shared with her late partner Sigi Odermatt. Tissi’s highly recognizable posters feature vivid colors and bold abstract forms. She often integrates clever, but always clear, typography into her designs. Tissi’s posters have been exhibited internationally and she received the Swiss Grand Award for Design in 2018.
Tissi designed this poster for a 2018 exhibition at the Pratt Manhattan Gallery on the work of three influential female graphic designers – Anni Albers, herself, and Elaine Lustig Cohen. Tissi has created beautiful geometrically-contructed letters to represent each designer – an A for Albers, a T for Tissi, and LC for Lustig Cohen.
This poster is signed by the designer.
