Legacy: Don Adleta and Karen Nulf, 60 years of graphic design.

“Legacy chronicles the contributions of graphic design professors Don Adleta and Karen Nulf’s 60 years of combined teaching and creative ventures at Ohio University. Guided by a love of type, print, letters, and especially their students, the exhibition unfolds their journey. Creative visual research in drawing and photography lead to professional ventures highlighting their sensitivity to typography and complex communication systems. The use of letterpress as a source of design fulfillment is embedded in this visual history that provides a path to the future of graphic design.”
