Seymour Chwast—a design legend—co-founded Push Pin Studios, where he led a revolution in graphic design in the 1960s and ’70s, producing bold, vibrant work that pushed the limits of nearly every visual medium. In 1987, Chwast partnered with Mohawk Paper Mills to create a campaign to introduce Mohawk’s new Nuance and Ultrafelt paper lines by reprinting 15 posters that Chwast designed in the 1970s and 80s.
This work, called “Fun and Fantasy”, from that collection, was created in 1984 for the Museum of the Borough of Brooklyn to publicize an exhibition of Brooklyn’s amusement parks and leisure areas.
