Professional career

Ralph Schraivogel studied graphic design at the Schule für Gestaltung Zürich from 1977 to 1982. After receiving his diploma, he opened his own graphic design studio in Zurich. He designs print media and devotes himself above all to poster design. He had a long-standing collaboration with the Zurich art-house cinema Filmpodium, 1983–2006. From the Museum of Design Zurich, he frequently gets poster assignments since 1984. From 1989 to 2006 he designed the posters for the African film festival “Cinemafrica” that got special attention. Ten years after graduating, Schraivogel returned to the Hochschule für Gestaltung und Kunst Zürich as a lecturer, where he continued to teach until 2001. During 2000/01 he was a guest professor at the Berlin University of the Arts. From 2003 until 2024 he taught at the Lucerne University of Applied Sciences and Arts. One-man shows in many locations including Tokyo, Osaka, Tehran, Paris, and Zurich, have helped make his work known to a wider public. His posters are part of numerous collections around the world including the permanent collection of the Museum of Modern Art in New York.[1] Schraivogel is a member of AGI since 1995.[2]
