About Mark
Mark Shafer is a Creative Director, Art Director and Photo Editor with vast experience heading up teams with leading companies such as Federal Reserve, Arts Magazine and Minnesota Monthly.
I’ve created effective and attractive work for organizations that depend on clear communications with their members and the public. My work is clean and intelligent. It’s noticed and remembered.
Last summer Lyndel King, Director of the Weisman Art Museum Director asked me to help design a catalog for an upcoming two-year exhibition. The 39 artists in the show were unified by Mingei, a philosophy of work that had been passed along through four generations of artists. When the catalogs were delivered to the museum I received this email from the director.
“Beautiful! The Mingei catalog is stunning. Congratulations and thank you. It is perfect.”
