When all the catalogs are stacked together the spines create a seamless spectrum of color that produces the quality of a sculpture.
” The catalog is limited to 576 units, the same amount of entries in the competition. It utilizes a variable printing program that makes each cover a different color within a predetermined spectrum. No two catalogs are identical and each is designated its own number. However when all 576 are stacked, they represent a seamless spectrum of color in a sculpture, or exhibition, form.”

Pingback: Christian Mortlock’s AIGA PDA Catalogs « Kinda Like This…
Christian Mortlock‘s AIGA project is a catalog design for American Institute of Graphic Arts, Philadelphia Design Competition. The catalog print-run was limited to the same amount of entries received (576) to represent all the work of the design community. Using a variable printing program, each cover is a different color of a predetermined spectrum; thus, making each catalog entirely unique— no two pieces are identical. In addition, each catalog was individually numbered.

beautiful work! posters for posterity!2
I like it. And it grabbed your attention esp. if you posted a comment below. whether you love it or hate I don't see anything where it promotes violence or degrading women.. what i see is government taking away the rights of a citizen n the rights away from people. Failure to follow instructions will land us in prison like the model. Now if steven photographed the same concept with average shmucks would we pay much attention to it? i dont think so. it'd be just another political journalistic photograph.3
