We are proud to announce the opening of the exhibit “Invisible Architecture: Ladislav Sutnar, Sweet’s Catalog Service and the Birth of Information Design 1941 – 1960” on Thursday, March 19 at the School of Design, Louisiana Tech University.
The exhibit features a chronologic history of the work produced by Ladislav Sutnar and Knud Lönberg-Holm for Sweet’s Catalog Service from 1941 to 1960 — the years when the partnership defined and pioneered the field now called information design.
Drawing on original source material from the modernism 101 Ladislav Sutnar collection, “Invisible Architecture” tells the story of how Sutnar and Lönberg-Holm utilized modern functional principles to solve the problem of information organization and —most importantly—retrieval.
Exhibition curated by Randall Ross/Molly McCombs of modernism 101. Exhibition coordinated by William Hartman.

The exhibition will be open until Saturday, 11 April.
