Artist: Milton Glaser
Year: 1966
Name: Dylan

I really like this poster, not only because I love Bob Dylan, but because of the artistic vision. I like how Glaser uses only a silhouette of Dylan and highlights the hair with strings of different colors. Glaser's exaggeration of color tells how Dylan's image became iconic and, to me, signifies his rebellious attitude. Milton Glaser was also responsible for designing the "I Love New York" logo in the 1970's, which has been popularly used throughout the world ever since.
