MyType:

An exhibit of limited-edition, new modernist posters by graphic design genius Noel Nanton.

 

Opening night: Saturday May 3rd, 6-10 pm (free)

Exhibition dates: May 2- May 11th. 2008

Location: Keep6 Contemporary Gallery, 938 Bathurst Street (north of Bloor) Toronto, Canada

 

Eye-popping popsicle colours, Italian cinema beauty and a very new take on classic modernist typography.

 

Starting with the premise that typefaces are as expressive as the words they form, typotherapy has created a series of posters that explore the relationship between positive and negative space. “Letters speak,” says typotherapy+design creative director Noël Nanton. “If you remove them from the constraints of sentences and even words, they have a language of their own.”

 

‘MyType’ uses the craft of typography to find new ways of speaking using fonts famous and unknown including Helvetica, Avant Garde and typotherapy creations like Tomeri and VW Mobile.
