Description:
In The Late 1980S, Moma Commissioned A Deck Of Cards By Graphic Designer Takenobu Igarashi. First Appearing In 1993, The Cards Reflect A Contemporary Sensibility. Breaking With Convention, Their Symbols Overlap And Cascade On The Front, A Stark Contrast To Their Isolated And Flat Treatment In Traditional Decks. On Their Uniform Back, Igarashi Plays With Positive And Negative Space, Merging The Symbols Of Each Suit In A Two By Two Composition That Bleeds Off The Cards’ Edges. Printed In Austria.
