I had an amazing Typography professor at the School of Visual Arts who was more passionate about type than you can imagine...he was able to convey this love of type to us. But I was in the "boring!" camp when it came to Helvetica... I’ve got “Helvetica” in my Netflix queue; now I’m going to move it up!

The insight into the world of font design and the graphic designers who understand the power of the written word (visually) was fascinating. I loved the movie Helvetica!

I was very impressed with not only the information about Close, but also the other artists portrayed and the writing about their work. There was a great show of Close's prints here at the Portland Art Museum, Oregon, recently and I became quite intrigued by the artist and the man. I liked him more than I expected. He's like all of us in some respect, putting in his time in the studio, fairly humble about it.His perseverance is definitely worthy of respect.
