The first retrospective of the work of Alan Fletcher, one of the most influential figures in the history of British graphic design.
Co-founder of Fletcher/Forbes/Gill in the 1960s and Pentagram in the 1970s, and in later years as Creative Director of Phaidon Press, he forged links with a new generation of British graphic designers. The exhibition presented fifty years of work exploring the wit and ingenuity of commercial work for Pirelli, Reuters, Lloyds of London, the V&A and Phaidon, as well as personal projects in lettering, collage and illustration.
