About The Work

This limited edition artist book by Mungo Thomson delves into themes relating to the nature of time, reading, mass culture, and graphic design. A clever, slow-motion flip book, Font Study (Time) condenses the evolution of TIME magazine’s logo from its conception in 1922 to its 2011 incarnation. Thomson refers to the project as “a phenomenological font study,” as he challenges the viewer to engage at once with philosophical inquiry and pop culture branding.

About Mungo Thomson

Working with films, photography, sculptures, and books, artist Mungo Thomson makes art that reflects mass culture. His work expresses an interest in the obvious because what is obvious is often overlooked and actually mysterious. He explores assumptions, backgrounds, and contexts, seeking to expose the importance of what lies behind the action.

Thomson has been featured in both the 2008 Whitney Biennial in New York and the 2008 Le Havre Biennale in Le Havre, France. In addition to his numerous group exhibitions, Thomson has had solo exhibitions in Paris, Italy, Switzerland, and throughout the United States.
