Stefan Sagmeister visits KWH

At right: Stefan Sagmeister, the designer-artist, being introduced by Kenny Goldsmith. Claudia Gould, director of the Jewish Museum and until recently director of the ICA here in Philly, then interviewed Sagmeister for an hour--part of a great day of events around Sagmeister's visit to Penn. The designer's work is central to the two-semester seminar being taught by Goldsmith as a collaboration between CPCW and the Writers House and ICA, co-sponsored by Penn's provost and by the School of Arts & Sciences. The next time the course will be offered is academic year 2013-14.
