Fuse Exhibition Tokyo 1999
Every issue of the quarterly magazine “FUSE” – an experimental medium created by Neville Brody in 1992 – comes with a floppy disk that includes four experimental fonts designed by four different designers. The publication’s initial aim was to search for new typographical expressions for the age of electronic media, but it has now evolved into a medium that implies, and in fact implements, the possibility of designers themselves becoming publishers and of establishing new relationships with the societies they live in (by assuming a more active role as opposed to simply filling orders). I planned this exhibition, which showcased a wide range of fonts designed by 74 avant-garde typographers from around the world, as a way to revisit from the perspective of a typographer, the dawn of the design revolution that was brought on by the digital revolution of the 90s. It’s a great joy for me that TDC has awarded me with this prize for the composition and design of this exhibition(Enami)
