The release party, held at Santos Party House in SoHo, New York, was a simultaneous launch of the artwork and the fourth issue of Eight by Eight. A large 5’x7’ version of the Wright-Phillips infographic was on display for viewing.
“We enlisted the help of Alex Garcia of Cranio Dsgn in Valencia for the illustration and John Grimwade, the legendary info-graphics guru to handle how the information was displayed,” Priest said. “With those two on board I knew we would be able to put together a great poster."
The graphic will be distributed for free to Red Bulls fans at the conclusion of the first leg of the Conference Championship match against New England on Sunday.
