This year marks the 20th annual Modernism exhibition presented at Wells Fargo Center in downtown Minneapolis. To commemorate the anniversary, Wells Fargo Minnesota has donated a series of 20 Swiss posters — emblematic of the Swiss International Style dating from 1950 to 1985 — to the Minneapolis Institute of Arts.

  2. Good Old Swiss; these posters are masterpieces, reminders of a golden era of design and designers around the world.
    There is so much to learn from these posters, from Akzidenz to Zurich.
