Von Glitschka, illustrative designer
Bismarck State College ArtsQuest takes the graphic arts center stage Wednesday, April 20, with a presentation by Von Glitschka, nationally recognized illustrative designer, teacher and lecturer from Salem, Oregon.
Glitschka speaks on "Creating 5ive-Alarm Concepts" and the need to find inspiration for new ideas outside the industry. His presentation begins at 7 p.m. in the National Energy Center of Excellence auditorium #304. BSC ArtsQuest offers his public program at no charge.
A designer's work demands producing original ideas on a daily basis, says Glitschka, who will demonstrate the importance of designers being great thinkers.
As an illustrative designer, Glitschka's work reflects the symbiotic relationship between design and illustration. His exuberant graphics have won numerous design and illustration awards and appeared in publications such as Communication Arts, Print, HOW, Society of Illustrators, Graphis, American Illustration, and the "LogoLounge" 2, 3, 4, and 5 books.
Glitschka is principal of Glitschka Studios, a multi-disciplinary creative firm, and has worked in the communication arts industry for more than 23 years. The studio is employed by advertising agencies, design firms, in-house corporate art departments and other media businesses. Among its clients are Microsoft, Adobe, Pepsi, General Motors, Hasbro, Merck, Disney, Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, Lifetime Television and major league baseball.
