The Upper East Side’s Neue Galerie is well known for its
stellar collection of early 20th century blue chip artwork
created in Austria and Germany. Artists, designers and
architects on Neue Galerie’s roster include legendary painters
Gustav Klimt and Egon Schiele; a number of works affiliated
with The Bauhaus, including those of László Moholy-Nagy;
and Russian-born Expressionist artist Alexei Jawlensky,
whose first full museum retrospective in the United States is
currently on view.
Duggal Visual Solutions’ Bob Kapoor and Ruchika Attri have
an ongoing relationship with Neue Galerie, most recently
overseeing the production of wall text and graphics for
the Alexei Jawlensky exhibition. Duggal’s production team
used a variety of printing and lettering options to deliver a
complete aesthetic and fluid visitor experience.
Working in complimentary color palettes that perfectly
match the walls, Duggal printed labels for individual pieces
onto museum board and trimmed them at an angle to create a
refined bevel cut. Additional historical information regarding
Jawlensky is presented in a timeline constructed from long
panels of mounted and laminated prints. A standout piece is a
Cad Cut quote from Jawlensky reading, “My spirit will live
on” – timeless words from an outstanding artist.
