Brooklyn Book Festival debuts official 2017 festival art poster
The Brooklyn Book Festival (BKBF), New York City’s largest free literary festival, has unveiled this year’s poster created by award-winning illustrator Adrian Tomine and award-winning designer Rodrigo Corral.
From posters to online portals and social media streams, the 2017 Brooklyn Book Festival is beautifully branded with Tomine and Corral’s dynamic design: book-toting New Yorkers of all ages and backgrounds swirling around the subway kiosk that serves Brooklyn Borough Hall. The poster is truly a celebration of the written word and an homage to the borough where the international festival takes place.
Tomine and Corral continue a tradition inaugurated last year when famed author and designer Chip Kidd produced his original design for the first-ever festival poster.
“The Brooklyn Book Festival is thrilled to have renowned cartoonist and illustrator Adrian Tomine design the 2017 Festival poster,” said Liz Koch, co-producer of BKBF. “His beautifully rendered image captures the vibe — hip, smart, diverse — of the festival, and of book lovers from all walks of life who turn out each year. Graphic designer Rodrigo Corral developed Adrian’s spirited image into a full-fledged classic art poster.”
