Yes, No, and WOW: the Push Pin Studios Revolution presents a like-minded group of six graphic artists who came together in the mid-20th century to form a graphic design firm that had a profound and lasting cultural impact. Three of the six artists have deep ties to Sag Harbor, and this exhibition continues The Church’s series of exhibitions that seek to illuminate the cultural, creative, and artistic history of our community. 

This exhibition will include actual materials from the Push Pin archive, including chapbooks, almanacks, posters, books, vinyl record covers, and objects from the six aforementioned artists: Seymour Chwast, Paul Davis, Milton Glaser, James McMullan, Reynold Ruffins and Ed Sorel, spanning the 50s into the 21st Century. We will be hosting talks by surviving members of this group as part of our exhibition-related activities throughout its run.

Yes, No, and WOW: the Push Pin Studios Revolution is curated by April Gornik and Myrna Davis.

More information about the exhibition can be found on our Exhibition Page here.

There are three responses to a piece of design - yes, no, and WOW! Wow is the one to aim for.
