This program will feature an eclectic collection of lettering from a wide variety of calligraphers, lettering artists, graphic designers and typographers, from European masters to contemporary American scribes and the resulting work that happened in his tiny studio. With examples drawn from research in libraries, museums and artists’ studios around the world, Carl traces the sources of inspiration which have influenced his own work and the resulting transformation into a highly original personal expression.
