[The Brief]
Each artist was allocated a random year [1957 - 2006] from
Helvetica’s lifetime. From this they were asked to illustrate an
event of creative or cultural significance which occured during their
allocated year. There were no other rules applied other than if they
used a typeface it must be Helvetica of of their own hand.
