About the Workshop:
This in-person workshop at Center for Book Arts is taught by instructor Dikko Faust.
Architectural ornament/signage and typography have had a symbiotic relationship for centuries - especially the 19th to the mid-twentieth. We'll talk about and observe different examples of text in urban and architectural environments, and then we will pick up rubbing supplies for street level examples and go for a typographic tour of the Center's neighborhood, taking photos of relevant signs, etc. Then you can go home and document your own neighborhood's archi-type!

About Dikko Faust
Dikko Faust founded Purgatory Pie Press when he was doing grad work with Walter Hamady at University of Wisconsin in 1977. He taught Letterpress and Typography at the Center for Book Arts, as well as School of Visual Arts, Cooper Union, Princeton, Rutgers, and workshops throughout the US, Canada, England, and Germany. In these workshops, he also offers his services as Type Detective, identifying UTF’s (unidentified typefaces). For recreational reading, he prefers old type catalogs. He did extensive research for Esther K Smith‘s Rizzoli reprint of William H Page’s Specimens of Chromatic Wood Type, Borders &c. Purgatory Pie Press has exhibited at Metropolitan Museum of Art, Victoria & Albert Museum, Museum of Modern Art, Harvard University, and many other art centers throughout the world, including more than a dozen Center for Book Arts exhibitions– starting with CBA’s 5 year anniversary exhibition.
