more videos from this event

Based on the popular TV show, we will be having an insightful one-on-one interview with Fritz Klaetke who owns and runs Visual Dialogue, located in Boston's South End. Fritz founded Visual Dialogue in1988 and today, he and is design team creates award-winning work ranging from corporate identity to music packaging, print collateral to web sites, magazines to sculpture, and book design to posters.

Interviewed by Clif Stoltze, you will hear how Fritz’s approach to design combines smarts (addressing key objectives to communicate effectively to the intended audience) and style (creating a visually intriguing form that stands out from the competition).

Visual Dialogue's work is in the permanent collection of the Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum in New York and has received awards from The American Institute of Graphic Arts, The Art Directors Club, Communication Arts, Graphis, HOW, and I.D. magazine. Clients include The American Institute of Graphic Arts, Crabtree & Evelyn, Fast Company, Harvard University, HBO, Institute of Contemporary Art, Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, MIT, Rounder Records, and Smithsonian Folkways.
