I also profiled the new season of Letter Exchange lectures that started this month. They are held in London with a livestream also available for those unable to attend in person.

Sign painting folk will likely be most interested in hearing from Ged Palmer on 15 April (https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/lecture-by-ged-palmer-lettering-artist-signwriter-designer-educator-tickets-1604483335849) and from Jane Parker on 17 June (https://www.eventbrite.co.uk/e/lecture-by-jane-parker-londonphile-graphic-design-independent-tour-guid-tickets-1604489424059).

Good, informative article by @letterror about his team's type screen for the new Amsterdam University Library. To be read in the just published Forum 49, the journal of the London based Letter Exchange. Nice photo on the cover.

Have just heard of Gerald Cinamon's passing via Letter Exchange. RIP.

The message mentioned this site of his, which has links to biographies, and lists of published works, by a huge number of German designers: http://www.germandesigners.net/designers

Just sharing in case it's of interest/use to anyone here.

The site also includes a page about Gerald: http://www.germandesigners.net/gerald_cinamon
