In the documentary "Helvetica," when they are interviewing Stefan Sagmeister (approx. 50 minutes in) what are the five posters of text he has hanging on the wall behind him?

i’ll watch it again and see if i can figure it out… i’ll get back to you.

saw him speak in july…he’s pretty interesting

I’m going to take really wild guess (maybe not so wild) and say that those lines of text comprise his list of “Things I have learned in my life so far”. But I think they may not be since I only know that 15–20 of those “things” actually exist. I’m really curious now! If I find out more I will get back to you!

I was wondering the same thing – when i googled it, i was brought here to your question. i’ll be back to see if you have found the answer!

Hi – I was curious enough to email Sagmeister’s company via their website, and they were good enough to get back to me. The posters are of Jenny Holzer’s “Truisms” ( http://mfx.dasburo.com/art/truisms.html). If you Google her, there are loads of further links.
