“Shifting Weights”, was a lecture delivered by Calil Arguedas-Russell, as part of the Rhoda Lubalin Fellowship he was awarded. The lecture was presented in the Rose Auditorium at The Cooper Union, on December 11, 2019.
“Everything you see is skewed. Our eyes make sure of it. What happens if we turn those blind spots into insights? This lecture uses side-by-side images to unpack the relationships between typography, and seemingly disparate studies, from chair design to Fosse’s choreography. The talk begins with a tote bag.
Calil Arguedas-Russell, the Rhoda Lubalin Fellow at the Herb Lubalin Study Center of Design and Typography, delivers this lecture as part of the fellowship. An artist and designer from West Palm Beach, FL in his fourth year in the School of Art, Calil Arguedas-Russell's practice centers on research, design, and printmaking.”
