neue grafik

Rosmarie Tissi was still a student, when her poster was published in the very first issue of the Neue Grafik, in the future one of the most important graphic design magazines. The poster, made for the autumn fair in her home village in the northern part of Switzerland, was featured in the publication about the new generation of Swiss designers.
