Hear from members why AIGA is the place to go for connections, resources, savings, education, recognition and—of course—inspiration.

Richard Grefé, executive director of AIGA, the professional association for design, discusses how creative professionals can elevate their role in the business world and earn greater validation for their work.

Joseph Binder (2004 AIGA Medalist) was an Austrian-born designer whose influence permeated Europe and the United States. He applied reductive compositional principles derived from Cubism and De Stijl to his posters, including the one he designed for the New York World’s Fair in 1939. In 1948 Binder became art director for the U.S. Navy Department, and in the 1960s he returned to his primary passion of painting.
