Abstract

Type Tells Tales' focuses on typography that is integral to the message or story it is expressing. This is type that speaks - that is literally the voice of the narrator. And the narrator is the typographer. This can be quite literal, for example when letters come from the mouth of a person or thing, as in a comics balloon. It can be hand lettering, drawn with its own distinctive peculiarities that convey personality and mood. Precedents for contemporary work might be in Apollinaire's calligram 'Il pleut' or Kurt Schwitters' children's picture book 'The Scarecrow', or in Concrete Poetry, Futurist 'Words in Freedom' or Dadaist collage. Seeking out examples in the furthest reaches of graphic design, Steven Heller and Gail Anderson uncover work that reveals how type can be used to render a particular voice or multiple conversations, how letters can be used in various shapes and sizes to create a kind of typographic pantomime, and how type can become both content and illustration as in, for example Paul Rand's 'ROARRRRR'. Letters take the shape and form of other things, such as people, faces, animals, cars or planes.

Abstract

Dooreman is een begrip in de wereld van vormgeving en typografie, een kwaliteitslabel. Zijn boekcovers voor Tom Lanoye, zijn posters voor het Toneelhuis, Theater Antigone en het NTGent, zijn banier aan de Antwerpse Boerentoren: ze hebben zich ongemerkt in het collectieve geheugen genesteld. Zijn prenten voor Playboy en De Standaard Magazine kunnen moeiteloos tippen aan het beste wat binnen-en buitenlandse vakgenoten bij elkaar hebben getekend. Dit boek is een geactualiseerde, gelimiteerde en gesigneerde editie van de monografie die in 2009 van De Grote Letterzetter uitkwam. Met meer dan 100 pagina's aan extra reproducties van covers, binnenwerk, affiches en tekeningen, en bijdragen van onder meer Tom Lanoye, Michiel Hendryckx, Gerda Dendooven en Wim Opbrouck. Dooreman ontving de Henry van de Velde Award voor Loopbaan 2014. --Lannoo

Abstract

This book is published on the occasion of an exhibition of work by Dutch designer Karel Martens at the Royal Academy of Arts in The Hague. Besides offering a closer look at his free work, it also covers his approach to the teaching of graphic design. Comprising a selection of both past work and more recent applied work, it also includes new essays by David Bennewith, who examines Martens' approach to teaching through its history and accounts from students, and Robin Kinross, who offers a meditation on the artist's free work, which demonstrates a consistent line of inquiry through his 54 years in graphic design. Martens was the recipient of the Gerrit Noordzij Prize in 2012. Exhibition: Royal Academy of Art, The Hague, The Netherlands (03.2015).

Abstract

Helblauw is een montageroman met etniciteit als centraal thema. Tillman is samen met zijn vriendin op vakantie in North-Carolina en correspondeert met een Afro-Amerikaanse collega. De discussies van het trio variëren van Mariah Carey tot Ronald Reagan, van de Black Power-beweging tot de erfenis van Nazi-Duitsland. Hun zoektocht naar hoe etniciteit, ras en geslacht zijn gedefinieerd, zal culmineren in onthullingen over hun eigen etnische identiteit.
