Institution Building: Barbara Stauffacher Solomon in conversation with Matylda Krzykowski

Oct 26, 2021, 11:01 AM

Barbara Stauffacher Solomon is an nonagenarian artist, graphic designer, painter and landscape architect. In Mytopia Utopia, a 36 page comic book for adults, the collaged juxtapositions, visual and verbal references, play with intended associations of architecture and society. 'All these recent books I made are about the look of the word and the meaning of the word. I am wonderfully overtrained in that subject.’

Stauffacher Solomon tells stories about the Supergraphics she did for The Sea Ranch in California in the 1960s, the Green Architecture & The Agrarian Garden publication from 1989, and how she not only knows how to draw and play, but also how to write words.
