Description

A new edition showing the work of one of the most famous Swiss designers: a comprehensive overview of his oeuvre. This illustrated essay traces the history of one of the leading exponents of "Swiss Graphic Design" in the 1950s and 1960s. Josef Mu ller- Brockmann's posters have become world famous for their ability to convey information with great visual tension, a sense of drama, and an extreme economy of means. He created a body of work in which timeless principles of visual communication are inscribed. In addition to the posters, the image part presents examples of logotypes, appearances, and exhibitions as well as numerous lesser-known works in chronological order.
