Blurring the boundaries of art, graphic design and branding, Austrian-born designer Stefan Sagmeister is known for his project Things I have learned in my life so far. Sagmeister published 20 maxims—among them, “Complaining is silly…either act or forget” and “Trying to look good limits my life”—in public spaces, rendered in silver duct work, sausage, light itself, and other materials. Sagmeister’s project is to harness design as a tool for social renewal. His studio, Sagmeister Inc., was founded in 1993 and counts among its clients the Rolling Stones, HBO and the Guggenheim Museum. Sagmeister teaches at the School of Visual Art in New York. He visits the IMA to talk about design and bliss. Book signing follows.
