DEBORAH SUSSMAN: WUHU GALLERY

A recent piece about Deborah Sussman's show at the WUHU gallery claims "Deborah Sussman gets what she deserves." And, I could not agree more. 

I had the amazing fortune of working with Deborah for a year and a half, and she continues to be a tremendous inspiration. She is a true graphic visionary in the mostly male dominated field of architecture, and it's interesting to see a show that displays her early works. Deborah is "recognized as a pioneer of environmental graphic design for creating arresting visual imagery and designing its highly imaginative applications for architectural and public spaces. Deborah's passion for the marriage of graphics and the built environment began during her time at the Eames office and has since led to collaborations with planners, architects and clients."

The exhibit displays everything from original sonotubes from the 1984 Olympics environmental graphics program to paper bags for the Los Angeles County Museum of Art. The exhibit is as exuberant and bold as Deborah herself.
