We are proud to announce that we've been nominated for a National Magazine Award in the prestigious category of General Excellence (Circulation under 100,000), given out by the American Society of Magazine Editors.

The design community lost a true visionary in February with the passing of Jeffrey Metzner, an award-winning art director, artist, designer, and founder and head of the motion graphics department at the School of Visual Arts. A lifelong New Yorker, Metzner started his career working in advertising at age 16, eventually becoming one the top art directors at DDB at the peak of their glory days in the ’60s. In later years, Metzner focused on commercials and motion graphics, started his own production company, Metzner Productions, and taught. Most recently, Metzner was working on a series of products with the Museum of Modern Art inspired by his book, Stick: Great Moments in Art, History, Film, and More.
But to those who knew him, or had the fortune of being taught by him, Jeffrey is most memorable for his endearing wonder, the many renegade stories of his early years, and the deft sense of humor behind his signature three-quarters cut-off baggy pants, boots, and hoodies (often one of his son Louie’s silk-screened creations). It’s those qualities, along with his steady hand of guidance and encouragement, that have inspired so many students, fellow professionals, and friends. The many who were touched by his spirit will continue to inspire next generations for years to come. In lieu of flowers, the family encourages donations made in Jeffrey's name to The Visual Arts Foundation at SVA. LINDSAY BALLANT
