Curator Pick: Die neue Tradition
As a branding curator, I admire Schickeria Studio’s uncompromising editorial stance. Their black and white system frames contemporary artworks with bold typographic hierarchy. The catalogue feels archival, raw, and refined, balancing scale and negative space. A strict grid and big headings guide attention, while margins preserve necessary breathing room. Material choices, matte stock and rich black ink, give the work tangible presence. Simple display methods, like metal hangers and binder clips, reinforce a functional identity. The result is a disciplined visual language that honors art, without overshadowing it. This project stands as a masterclass in restraint and confident simplicity today.
As a curator, I value work that communicates through rules, not decoration. Schickeria’s catalog demonstrates how typography and layout can become cultural scaffolding. Photographic spreads and open magazine mockups by Lukas Dieml add thoughtful context. The installation, sheets hung with simple metal hangers, translates print into spatial experience. For brands and curators seeking clarity, this project is a blueprint for elegant restraint. Read the full case study to study the grids, material choices, and display strategies. It will inspire disciplined systems thinking, and practical solutions for exhibition identities everywhere now.
