Résumé:
Karl Nawrot is a graphic designer whose work has a pronounced architectural sensibility. His oeuvre includes typography, illustration, and abstract graphic compositions, and he uses techniques usually associated with architectural processes to create letterforms drawn using various media. ‘Mind Walks’ compiles more than 900 images of Nawrot’s selected works from between 2004 and 2017. Edited and designed by him, and with a text by James Langdon, the book is a fascinating compendium of plastic expression through various materials. Whether formed in pencil, ink, foam board, card stock, or metal, his creations are the typographic equivalent of an architectural model.

Résumé:
This catalogue accompanies an exhibition of both new and old work by Karel Martens at Platform-L Contemporary Art Centre in Seoul, curated by Sang Un Jeon. In both format and content it offers a succinct overview of the world of the renowned Dutch graphic designer, who has produced an extensive array of works over the six decades of his career. The various influences he has absorbed during this period, combined with his socially conscious approach, have made him an idiosyncratic designer who brings together rational schemes and literary sensibility in a remarkable way. The publication was designed by Sulki & Min, former students of Martens from Yale University.

Résumé:
In the last ten years, the Dutch photographer Erik van der Weijde has been responsible for over fifty publications: these include not only slim photozines and simply produced brochures but also voluminous cloth-bound books — many of them distributed via his own publishing house 4478ZINE. This Is Not My Book provides for the first time an overview of his work, which constitutes one of the most important artistic positions at the interface between photography and independent publishing. The book uses large-format representations to show the lines of connection between the individual publications. It also contains van der Weijde’s 4478ZINE publishing manifesto and other texts as well as five conversations with the publishers Anne König and Jan Wenzel. This Is Not My Book indicates a full stop, an act of punctuation set down by the author with his published work.

Résumé:
Bunpei Yorifuji, auteur et illustrateur japonais, propose dans 'Le dessin et les mots' une réflexion personnelle et éclairée sur son métier de designer graphique. En interrogeant sa pratique, il revient sur des thématiques propres à ce domaine comme le rapport texte-image, l’influence des technologies sur le travail du designer, l’équilibre fragile entre esthétique et lisibilité, ou encore le rôle social du designer. Ces réflexions exprimées sous forme d’un carnet de notes personnelles sont nourries d’anecdotes et d’exemples illustrés. Pour compléter ces thématiques générales, une partie de l’ouvrage se concentre plus précisément sur le design de livres et la conception de couvertures. L’auteur y décrit avec beaucoup de pédagogie et d’humour différentes manières d’aborder ce travail si particulier d’alliance des mots et du dessin. La question que pose Bunpei Yorifuji pourrait être : qu’est-ce que le design graphique, et comment exercer la profession de graphiste aujourd’hui? L’auteur propose d’y répondre comme à son habitude, en texte et en image, mêlant dessins pédagogiques et recherche approfondie.

Résumé:
Tokyo Papers’ comprises a collection of 41 monoprints created by Dutch graphic designer and typographer Karel Martens between 2019 and 2020. In 2018, Martens received a package from artist-curator Pierre Leguillon that contained filled-in Japanese forms which he had found at a street market in Tokyo. Martens was intrigued by the collection of thin paper with a rectangular black-blue layer of carbon on the back. In 2019 he started to print on these back sides, but because the overprinting on the carbon layer caused unwanted damage, he switched to printing them on the front sides as well. “The closing image is related to Tokyo in a different way,” he explains. + A selction of portraits from the digital guest book, collected during the exhibition 'Karel Martens : Still Moving', at Platform-L in Seoul.

Résumé:
Considéré aujourd’hui comme l’un des plus célèbres graphistes américains, Paul Rand a marqué l’histoire du design graphique par sa production, notamment celle de logos pour de grandes entreprises telles que IBM, ABC ou UPS qui restent encore majoritairement inchangés aujourd’hui. Véritable artiste moderne, Paul Rand est parvenu à allier certaines influences avant-gardistes européennes (notamment celles du Bauhaus, du mouvement De Stijl, ou du constructivisme russe) au fonctionnalisme américain, donnant ainsi naissance à une nouvelle conception du design. Son travail sur les identités visuelles a ainsi transformé en profondeur le champ de la publicité en faisant du design un outil commercial à part entière. Ce livre sera accompagné de près de 150 images en noir et blanc et 70 en couleur qui donnent à voir l’ensemble du travail de Paul Rand, et d’une postface de Steven Heller, journaliste et directeur artistique américain.
