Here Glaser promotes a 1989 exhibition in the Masters Series at the Visual Arts Museum that honors his own career as a graphic designer. The series had been introduced the previous year with an exhibition honoring the American graphic designer Paul Rand. Silas Rhodes, who curated the second show featuring more than two hundred works by Glaser, had founded the Cartoonists and Illustrators School in 1947, renaming it the School of Visual Arts in 1956. In the poster, Glaser, as so often, attempts to break free of the two-dimensional confines of the paper, showing a three-dimensional image of one of his own sketchbooks with an eye-catching drawing of tomatoes.
