You are going to be designing a recording artist poster with roots in the Post-Modernist movement. This is a period of design that chose to go against the structure of Modernism and add some chaos in the design world. Also know as "Grunge" design, named after the musical movement of the time, there was not a limit to the amount of fonts used in a piece or any specific formulas to follow. A large amount of the pieces included unexpected errors which made them appear edgy. Also, most artist used their own work and did not stick to using fonts they were given. Hand written text, text stolen from other sources, and hand drawn doodles were utilized in many cases. Remember, when making your own piece, be original in design and artwork and you don't have to worry about making it readable.... just interesting.
