IMAGES HAVE BEEN PROVIDED BY THE DESIGNER: www.gripdesign.com

When you think of the Art Institute of Chicago, images of classic fine art from the likes of Georgia O’Keeffe, Edward Hopper, Diego Rivera and Paul Cézanne among many others will first come to mind. And, in my mind at least, I have always had a difficult time separating those images from my perception of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago (SAIC). Of course, this is my fault and no one else’s and it was further disproved by this unflinchingly contemporary admissions catalog by Chicago based Grip Design that paints (pun intended) SAIC as one of the top graduate art programs offering degrees in visual communication, architecture, art and art history, and writing.

The first thing you notice about this catalog is its purple-printed edge that gives it an immediate presence, but that is only the beginning as you navigate through more than 200 pages with myriad textures and typographic details that give the SAIC quite a visual edge.
