In 2018, Barbara Stauffacher Solomon published Making the Invisible Visible, a series of lyrical essays on nothingness, propaganda, homogeneity, and other things related to invisibility. Her seven-decade career as a designer (concealing) and an artist (revealing) had led to an obsession on the topic. Five years later, she decided to revisit it with this book, spurred by a sense of her own mortality and that she too would become invisible. A special thanks to Nellie King Solomon, Gabriel Garza and Chris Grunder for bringing this project to fruition. 

Barbara Stauffacher Solomon (b.1928 in San Francisco) has worked as an artist, designer, and landscape architect across eight decades. Perhaps best known for her invention of Supergraphics, she has also shown her work widely and is represented in the permanent collections of MoMA, LACMA, The Walker Art Center, and many more.
