Double Feature Exhibit / Stoltze Design at Hartford Art School

This fall, Clif served as the Koopman Distinguished Chair in Hartford Art School's visual communication design department. A semester of teaching will culminate in an exhibition and lecture celebrating 30 years of Stoltze work. 

 The show, Double Feature, will include Stoltze projects from the past three decades, and also showcase the designs of the Spring Koopman Chair, Bonnie Siegler and her New York design studio Eight and a Half. For our part, we've curated a selection of music packaging, posters, websites, printed collateral and magazines, book jackets, and a wall of our favorite logos. The space is also steeped in the Stoltze aesthetic, with distinctive wall colors, furniture, artifacts, and custom woodwork made from reclaimed materials by Jeff Smith, the talented artist and friend who built out our studio space.  

 A public reception will take place on Thursday, February 6, from 5–7 pm, preceded by presentations by Clif and Bonnie at 3:30 pm in the Wilde Auditorium, adjacent to the show's home in the beautiful Joseloff Gallery. The exhibition will be open from January 21 through February 16, 2014. If you're in the neighborhood, or up for a day trip to Hartford, please stop by!
