Letters and Ligatures
8th November - 5th December '08
Subliminal Projects Gallery
1331 W Sunset Blvd, Los Angeles, CA
L.A.-based Subliminal Projects is presenting Letter and Ligatures, an exhibition delving into the alphabetical world of the Delaware-based House Industries.
Aiming to give an insiders view into the world of type, the exhibition will feature a collection of prints, patterns, installations and sculptures, drawing on House Industries’ fifteen-year excursion into the world of scripts and symbols.
House Industries understands that each design requires a commitment of time, energy, and creativity. With each project, the bond between designer and font is deepened. The two work closely together, first coming to an understanding of the project’s origins and meaning, then translating that abstraction into something that compliments but does not distract from the main idea.
The work presented throughout the exhibition details the imaginative fonts and designs that marry type with thought. So for those of you as obsessed with Typography as we are, this promises to be a fascinating show.
