African Art in the Barnes Foundation

Design by Glenn Suokko
Skira-Rizzoli · Barnes Foundation

2015 · Hardcover · 12½ × 9 in · 296 pages · 333 images

I designed African Art in the Barnes Foundation to foreground the sculptural presence of the collection. Proportion, spacing, and understated typography guide the reader through the material, allowing the works to be encountered with clarity and sustained attention.
