The Van Doesburg exhibition at Tate Modern is a fantastic example of where our current visual style using bold communicative typography have developed. You can imagine Theo van Doesburg working in this century just as much as in his lifetime (1883-1931). The most exciting works in this exhibition for me were typographical posters of De Stijl movement, and the geometric art forms which created such a distinct look and feel of this period of time - and still now.
Exhibition on at Tate Modern until 16 May 2010
