Description
People often ask where they can find the bold ads and graphic artworks on the walls of our office spaces, which prompted us to reprint select pieces from our archives. The Watermelon Picnic Poster (1971) was one of 20 posters designed for Herman Miller’s annual company picnic, and the first assignment given to Stephen Frykholm, who’d just been hired as the first in-house graphic designer. Frykholm went on to have a 45-year career at Herman Miller and his series of Picnic Posters is now included in the permanent collections of MoMA and many other museums worldwide.
Features
- Authentic limited-run reprint from the Herman Miller archives.
- Screen printed in Michigan using the original 1971 screen.
- Printed on 100% cotton paper.
- Appears to float in its frame, creating a graphic look when hung on the wall.
