Modern Type, #3

This example of modern typography is from the book Graphic Styles : From Victorian to New Century. The specific example I want to write about is the top image which is a poster designed by Max Burchartz. The use of bold, all caps, sans serif contrasts nicely with the placement of the photos. It's a poster advertising the Schubert Festival in Austria, which holds concerts for classical style musicians to this day. The box of text draws attention to the information within and the text runs up to the edge of the box, though it doesn't look like too much. The point size changes create a clear hierarchy. I think that this organization is a great example to reference to in my work.
