This collection showcases four promotional posters designed for the Olive DeLuce Gallery at Northwest Missouri State University. Created to support visiting artist exhibitions and lectures, each poster highlights a unique artist and their work, serving both as promotional material and visual documentation of the gallery’s programming. The posters were displayed across campus and within the Fine Arts building to engage the university community.
This poster was designed to promote Hanging Paper, a collaborative exhibition by artists Laura Nugent and Garry Noland. The background features a dynamic collage, constructed from a submitted artwork image that was cropped into multiple segments to add depth and visual interest. The design reflects the experimental and textured nature of the artists’ work, while effectively capturing attention for the gallery event.
This poster was created to promote An Archive of Care, an exhibition by artist Robin North. It features a submitted photograph from the artist’s body of work, presented against a clean, minimal background. The restrained design and minimal typography were intentionally chosen to keep the viewer’s attention centered on the image, reflecting the thoughtful and contemplative nature of the exhibition.
This poster was designed for the university’s Senior Preview Show, an exhibition highlighting selected works from graduating students. The background features a dynamic collage created by former gallery coordinator Armin Muhsam, symbolizing the diversity and creativity of the featured artists. Bold, prominent typography was used to underscore the student-focused nature of the event.
This poster was designed to promote artist and university alum Bob Walkenhorst's My Version of the Story, a one-man performance held at the Charles Johnson Theater, followed by an art showcase in the university’s Olive DeLuce Gallery. The design features a black-and-white self-portrait submitted by the artist, paired with bold green typography to create contrast and highlight key event details.
