Promotional Work for Rhode Island School of Design

Don Adleta

1983-1984

A Rhode Island School of Design Summer Institute Brochure 1983, and a Letterform Design Workshop poster 1984.  Don Adleta taught at RISD after graduate school and initiated the summer institute of graphic design. Notable professors such as André Gürtler and Christian Mengelt were invited to teach in the Letterform Design Workshop with Don.

These posters were designed using multiple layers of handmade film negatives and film positives to achieve the desired gradation and movement in the composition. This was in the years just before digital files.
