With magazine covers today getting visually more crowded than a NYC subway, George Lois’ exhibition of his Esquire covers is a must see for the fashion and photography crowd. The Museum of Modern Art celebrates one of the true icons of the advertising and visual world. MTV(“I want my MTV”), VH1, ESPN, Tommy Hilfiger and Lean Cuisine owe much of their success and household recognition thanks to Lois, a New York born marketing genius. Runs through March 31st,2009.
