Neyenesch Printers was honored to be selected by The San Diego Museum of Art to produce Moon Gold, the companion book for New York based artist Nancy Lorenz’s first major museum exhibition. Moon Gold introduces the artist to the viewer and allows them to take her amazing body of work with them to revisit and re-experience at their leisure. SDMA assembled a talented team of editors, designers and photographers to create a truly exquisite design. Collaborating with the creative team from concept to completion of the project gave us the opportunity to understand their vision and make it a reality. We are proud to have played a supporting role. This must-see exhibition is open through September 3, 2018.

Client Feedback
The San Diego Museum of Art has worked with Neyenesch for a variety of printing needs over the years and we have been impressed time and again by the excellent customer service, attention to detail, expertise, and appreciation for quality we’ve encountered from their entire team. Our latest project with Neyenesch—an 88-page catalogue for the first major museum exhibition of acclaimed contemporary artist Nancy Lorenz—was a truly unique collaboration, with stunning results. The Museum looks forward to partnering with Neyenesch in the future to produce more high-quality publications.
