About the Item

THE MODERN POSTER. 1988. 38 3/4x24 1/2 inches, 98 1/2x62 1/4 cm. Condition A. Paper. Greiman, an early proponent of computer imagery and digital design, became a prominent role model for a new generation of American graphic designers in the digital age.

In addition to designing one of the posters for this seminal poster exhibition at the Museum of Modern Art in New York, the exhibition (along with Armin Hofmann and other designers).
