DRAFT

Peter Bankov (b. 1969) is a graphic designer influenced by European and Slavic culture. Born in Minsk, Belarus, and hailing from a self-proclaimed family of artists, Bankov’s work is digitally created and presented in poster form. His work is textured, mixing physical and digital pieces in highly expressive forms. His career began in Moscow, Russia upon founding Neuch, an artist book collective, in 1993, later founding the Design Depot Company and a well-recognized design magazine, kAk.

In 2014 Bankov hosted a public poster diary documenting daily projects. Viewing the media of posters as a pivotal design choice, and is quoted as saying “It is [a] laboratory of modern design” in a 2022 interview on his work, Bankov’s pieces are bold, expressive, and powerful.
