Red Nose Studio’s award-winning labels for Blasted Church Vineyards are being featured at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art as part of their current exhibition, How Wine Became Modern: Design + Wine 1976 to Now. It runs until Sunday, April 17th, 2011.

The exhibition examines how architecture, design and media have contributed to the visual culture of wine. Developed in collaboration with the New York architecture studio Diller Scofidio + Renfro, the exhibition features historical artifacts, architectural models, multimedia installations, newly commissioned artworks and even a “smell wall,” presenting wine as you’ve never seen it before.

Here Comes the Garbage Barge! (Schwartz + Wade), written by Jonah Winter and illustrated by Red Nose Studio, was named one of the year’s top ten illustrated children’s books by The New York Times Book Review.

This year’s panel includes Robert Sabuda, a co-creator of the best-selling Encyclopedia Prehistorica series and twice the recipient of a Times Best Illustrated award; Elizabeth Bird, a children’s librarian with the New York Public Library, whose first picture book, Giant Dance Party, is due out next year; and David Barringer, a novelist and designer who is the author of There’s Nothing Funny About Design.

Congratulations go out to Chris, Jonah and everyone at Schwartz + Wade!
