MoMA Acquires 23 Groundbreaking Fonts for Design Exhibit

As a part of its 'Standard Deviations; Prototypes, Archetypes, and Families in Contemporary Design' exhibit, the Museum of Modern Art has acquired something rather intangible: a collection of 23 digital fonts. From the pixelated Oakland font of the 1980s to the familiarly clean Gotham, each of these typefaces suggests that the mere appearance of a letter, notwithstanding the words it might make, guides our digital experience.
