Author's note

Visual Obsessions by Manfred Klein is a free portrait dingbat font built from stylized faces and profiles, ranging from loose contour drawings to dense silhouettes. Each face has the immediacy of a quick artist's study.

An exhibition poster is its strongest setting, since the figures can act as both title ornament and subject matter. The same expressive heads suit gallery invitations, editorial features, and merchandise for theater or independent music events. Its mix of elegant linework and rougher graphic forms will appeal most to illustrators and arts-focused studios seeking human imagery with an offbeat edge.
