ART

Kurt Woerpel is a designer and art director living and working in Brooklyn, NY. In 2018 he assisted in the redesign and relaunch of Interview Magazine under Richard Turley, after which he served as art director until 2024. Now he maintains a full time freelance practice contributing to projects for clients like Apple and Adidas alongside community-run projects like Brooklyn Art Book Fair. In addition to commercial work Kurt is also a partner in TXTbooks, an independent publisher of Risograph zines since 2014. His work has been recognized by the Type Directors Club and Young Guns awards among others.

Kurt describes the work done for Post Bar: "The area surrounding our studio in Bushwick, NY is semi-industrial zone with little to no foot-traffic at night, making it a prime place for people to drop stolen or otherwise derelict vehicles. This poster, a mixture of 3D scan and blender, envisions one of these cars in the last hours leading up to its abandonment."
