I’ve posted images for the exhibition catalogue for Iñigo Manglano-Ovalle’s Gravity is a Force to be Reckoned With over on the portfolio. The catalogue accompanies Iñigo’s exhibition in our Building 5 gallery—an upside-down, half-scale replication of Mies van der Rohe’s House with Four Columns.
This book was a real pleasure to work on. It was an unplanned, crash project (we did the whole thing in about a month) and through curator and editor Denise Markonish’s fearless stewardship, we actually pulled it off. The book is simple, but full of heart and attention to detail. If, like me, you enjoy geeking out over specs, here they are:
- Dimensions: 8.25 x 8.25 inches
- Pages: 88+cover (five 16-page signatures and one 8-page signature)
- Ink: three signatures at 1/1 (Pantone 433U), two signatures at 4/4 (CMYK), and one signature at 2/2 (Pantone 432U+Magenta); cover is 1/0 (Pantone 430U)
- Stock: Finch Fine Bright White Ultra Smooth 80# Text, Mohawk Via Smooth Light Gray 70# text (screenplay), and Mohawk Loop Linen Pure White 110# DTC (cover)
- Typefaces: Futura, National, Courier
- Cover: 1/0 with a clear foil stamp
The book is for sale here. The exhibition is on view through October 31, 2010.
