THIS THURSDAY: the Museum of Art and Design is sponsoring an online conversation with Steven Heller and John T. Hill about Hill's forthcoming book, Norman Ives: Constructions and Reconstructions. The book, written and designed by John T. Hill, is an overview of Ives’ graphic design, personal work, teaching and publishing. Designer/author Steven Heller and Hill, who was a former student, colleague and close friend of Norman Ives, will discuss the works and creative process of this modern master.

Norman Ives’ teaching at Yale University helped reformulate the field of design in its transition from commercial art. Ives noted that the graphic designer must interpret and compose ideas in a public, universal way that will relate to the instincts and cultural ideas, conscious and unconscious, in all of us. Although famous as a graphic designer, Norman Ives received recognition in applied and fine arts. He was featured at both the Whitney Annual Exhibition of American Artists and the Museum of Modern Art. His work is also in the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art, the Guggenheim Museum, the Smithsonian, the Yale University Art Gallery and other major collections.
