Art Can Save China Poster

Poster companions for the Art Can Save China book. Using identical fonts and graphic elements from the book, such as font, color, and linework, the posters are intended to be showcased outside the gallery space Eastern Projects, which is located in the heart of Downtown Los Angeles’ Chinatown and houses artwork by artists from the East.
Learning Outcomes:
I learned to extract graphic and typographic elements from the book and extend them as branding techniques in poster designs. I also learned that the context in which the poster is placed is extremely important in communicating the poster's message and purpose.
Posters in Context: Eastern Projects, a contemporary art gallery located in the heart of downtown Los Angeles.
