Next in the reading room, we will be hosting Tone in Tongue, a multi-venue international exhibition curated by Radical Characters, an educational and curatorial platform exploring typography, language, and Hanzi (Chinese characters).
Join Mary Y. Yang, co-founder of Radical Characters for a curator talk at Letterform Archive. Yang is an Assistant Professor at Boston University, where she teaches in both the undergraduate and graduate Graphic Design programs.
The talk will offer an in-depth look at the exhibition’s concept and curatorial approach and how Tone in Tongue brings together contemporary design studios, independent publishers, and emerging designers through multilingual typography and print — finding common ground across language, diasporic identity, and visual culture.
