Abstract

Félix Beltrán, born 1938 in Havana, Cuba, is one of the most important Latin American graphic designers. He studied at the famous School of Visual Arts in New York in the 1950s and was influenced by mid-century modernism. For more than six decades, he has shaped a conceptual approach to graphic design that emphasizes simplicity as a fundamental principle of effective visual communication. His works are situated in the tension between abstract geometry and concrete art. This book is the first monograph on Beltrán. It not only shows hundreds of his logos, posters, and book covers, but also provides a deep insight into the conceptual and creative mind of the Cuban graphic designer.https://optikbooks.de/felix-beltran-visual-intelligence/

Abstract

Be Water My Friend: B.W.M.F. presents the graphic journey and creative methodology by Rafael Bernardo, a designer and creative activist. The book outlines an analytic system that elaborates on how water behaves, how creativity works. A tool to connect the way we think with the way we feel by examining how we shape and navigate our processes, projects and routines.Inspired by an interview with Bruce Lee, where he refers to an aspect of Taoist philosophy, that water can teach us 'the way,' the graphic designer, creative activist, lecturer, author, and founder of the eponymous studio for branding communication Rafael Bernardo started to wonder whether he 'was water' in his creative workflow. Now, five years later, he wrote and designed a book with 224 pages, which is divided 50/50 into the parts Roots and Wings. Wings presents the graphic journey. Eleven of Bernardo's favorite personal projects and collaborative works he did for example with Viva con Agua, the Forward Festival, or the porcelain factory Rosenthal. And then, there is a selection of eighty Be Water My Friend posters, created to practice and explore his visual voice. Clear compositions in black and white within a spectrum of typography, illustration, and infographics.Part two, Roots, outlines the theoretic foundation of Rafael Bernardo's experience. The introduction of the Be Water My Friend methodology. An analytic system that he developed after he found out, that water behaves like creativity works.It describes the progress of development as a clockwork, divided into three levels. Context in the outside, motivation in the center, and process as the connecting part in-between. It is a tool to connect the way we think with the way we feel by examining how we shape and navigate our processes, projects, and routines.Bernardo believes that everybody experiences creativity in a different way but that its structures and functionalities work similar for all of us. The first question is always whether you know what you want, if you love doing it, and if you are good at it. The second question is whether you know how to find the little hidden mistakes, that hold you back from getting better. This book wants to inspire creative performers to see mindset and intuition as team-players and shows how to connect and tune them to each other by reflecting on time, dreams, and potentials.Since water runs in cycles and 'nomen est omen,' the book will be printed on three different kinds of 100% recycled paper, used water-based colors, and chose a printer that compensates for its carbon-footprint. The format is 16 × 24 cm, the spot color is Pantone 032U, all fonts in the layout except from one that Bernardo made himself are designed by newglyph.bron: https://www.slanted.de/be-water-my-friend-b-w-m-f/

Abstract

Caleidoscopica takes us on a journey through the last ten years of the career of Olimpia Zagnoli, an internationally renowned illustrator whose sinuous and colourful images have quickly conquered the worlds of publishing, fashion and communication. Her unmistakable stroke guides us through the 148 pages of this anthology in an overwhelming sequence of works ? drawings, prints, neon, textiles and sculptures ? that are juxtaposed by free association or by clear affinities of theme, colour and form.The rhythm of this immersive journey is punctuated by a series of texts and thoughts from authors working in the fields of illustration, design and art, offering multiple and original readings of Olimpia?s work. The uniqueness of the publication is enhanced by a series of sketches, contained in notebooks of visual notes and preparatory works that reveal the creative process through which Olimpia, seeking the synthesis of the image, arrives at the essence of the message with the freshness and naturalness that make her unique. The book, edited by Melania Gazzotti, is addressed to lovers of illustration, to all those interested in design, fashion, style and looking for inspiration, and to all Olimpia?s fans.bron: https://www.counter-print.co.uk/collections/all-books/products/olimpia-zagnoli

Abstract

The extraordinary suprematist painting Black and White, A Suprematist Composition of 1915 by Kazimir Malevich was one of the most radical paintings of its day: a geometric abstraction without reference to external reality. It was donated to Moderna Museet in February 2004 and to celebrate its fiftieth anniversary the museum commissioned the renowned Malevich scholar, Dr. Andrei Nakov, to produce this study devoted entirely to this significant addition to its collection. Kazimir Malevich (1878-1935) was a Russian avant-garde painter and art theoretician. A pioneer of geometric abstract art, he was the founder and leading artist of the Suprematist movement. Dr. Andrei Nakov, born 1941 in Sofia, Bulgaria, lives and works in Paris. The author of numerous works on Malevich, including Malevitch écrits (1975) and Kazimir Malewicz: Catalogue raisonné (2002), he has also published numerous monographs and exhibition catalogues on Russian non-objective art, Dada and Constructivism and many works on Western modern art.

Abstract

A survey of Imran Mir's abstract and contemplative work, with fifteen essays. Published on the occasion of the exhibition "Sedje Hémon. Imran Mir. Abdias Nascimento. Abstracting Parables", as part of the international Arnhem based art manifestation sonsbeek20→24, at Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam, in 2022. Pakistani artist, sculptor, and designer Imran Mir's (1950-2014) oeuvre can be interpreted as a constant refusal to provide comprehensive elaboration beyond what one experiences. The act of contemplation is a guiding principle to interpreting Imran Mir's work, an approach that reverberates into a practice that grew out of conversations with a community of artists, activists, poets, relatives, and other thinkers in Karachi. Non-figurative, non-representational, geometrical and very bold, Imran Mir's works can be read as theorems and positions on multiple modernisms and abstractions. Without being a critique or a response, he played with the rules, bypassing and expanding them to other realms to explore ways of being, ways of knowing time and space outside of the confinements of the West.
