Our fortieth Standing-Room-Only Lecture will have Anežka Minaříková coming from the home of the oldest performing arts center in the United States to talk about Czech graphic designer Clara Istlerová. A pioneering figure in Czech graphic design, Istlerová (b. 1944) is celebrated for her distinctive book covers, calligraphy, and expressive use of type which helped shape the visual culture of postwar Czechoslovakia.

Our speaker, Anežka Minaříková, is a independent graphic designer and a creative at Google. She is the editor of Clara Istlerová: A Life Among Letters.

Standing-Room Only Lectures aim to present short talks about graphic design, typography, and collecting. The lectures are kept to about twenty minutes because—true to its name—the series takes place in our standing-room only gallery. So, wear comfortable shoes and bring a short attention span.

We will be checking ticket reservations at the door. Don’t bother printing your ticket as we can look you up by name. We will have a stand-by line at the door for this event. Five minutes before the event begins, we will open up the event to those in the stand-by line on a first-come, first-served basis. If you have reserved a ticket for this event, please note that it will guarantee your place until 6:55 pm on the day of the event.
