Deitch Projects

Exhibition announcements, posters, catalogues and printed matter from Deitch Projects, the New York gallery founded by Jeffrey Deitch that operated at 76 Grand Street and 18 Wooster Street in SoHo from 1996 to 2010. Deitch Projects’ programme moved between fine art, street culture, music, fashion, retail display and immersive installation, presenting artists including Keith Haring, Takashi Murakami, Kaws, Os Geméos and many others. Its ephemera — announcements, folded posters, invitations and catalogues — document a particular reconstruction of downtown New York culture at the intersection of the art world and popular culture.
