Visual identity for the Gothic Modern exhibition at the Albertina Museum in Vienna. The exhibition explores the relationship between medieval art and European modernism, highlighting how artists such as Edvard Munch, Max Beckmann, and Käthe Kollwitz drew on Gothic stylistic and thematic elements and translated them into a modern visual language. An accompanying catalog was edited by Ralph Gleis and published by Hirmer in two language editions, English and German. The identity uses the Riegla and Riegraf typefaces.
