Résumé:
Otto Baumberger (1889–1961) was one of the first Swiss “poster designers”. His original graphic creations led to a reduction bordering on abstraction, in which graphic and textual elements underwent an increasingly potent synthesis. Thus, in its variety, Baumberger’s work embodies and exemplifies the history of Swiss poster art in the first half of the twentieth century,(...)

Résumé:
Otto Baumberger (1889–1961) was one of the first Swiss “poster designers”. His original graphic creations led to a reduction bordering on abstraction, in which graphic and textual elements underwent an increasingly potent synthesis. Thus, in its variety, Baumberger’s work embodies and exemplifies the history of Swiss poster art in the first half of the twentieth century, as the painterly artist poster gradually evolved toward graphically oriented corporate design.

Résumé:
Sculpteur, designer. scénographe, architecte, paysagiste ... Isamu Noguchi (1904 - 1988) a été un artiste complet liant intimement son art à sa vie. Entre États-Unis et Japon -- ses deux patries -- entre abstraction et figuration, entre tradition et modernité il a inlassablement créé sans jamais se soucier des frontières. Artiste phare de la scène internationale de l'après-guerre, il est aussi connu pour ses lampes Akari, une lumineuse réinvention de la lanterne japonaise. Et si ses oeuvres sculptées appartiennent aujourd'hui aux collections des plus grands musées. elles occupent aussi l'espace public des villes où elles se font terrain de jeux de méditation ou de contemplation - de vie en tout cas pour le plus grand nombre.

Résumé:
Colour is rarely the sole focus of a poster, especially since colour photography is a given component of most advertising. Thus it is often assumed that the graphic design world will always be brightly coloured. But as this latest volume on the Poster Collection of the Zurich Museum für Gestaltung sets out to prove, there are advantages to working in black and white. In a(...)

Résumé:
Colour is rarely the sole focus of a poster, especially since colour photography is a given component of most advertising. Thus it is often assumed that the graphic design world will always be brightly coloured. But as this latest volume on the Poster Collection of the Zurich Museum für Gestaltung sets out to prove, there are advantages to working in black and white. In a compilation of international posters created over the last 40 years, "Poster Collection 08" brings to light a surprising variety of approaches where the colour of the paper and the black of the ink are the only materials at hand. Those materials alone provide the creative will with the tools it needs to create a succinct statement. Examples come via designers like A.G. Fronzoni, Werner Jeker, James Victore and Büro Destruct, and range from the political manifesto to the poetic abstraction, from modernist cool to postmodern eclectic.

Résumé:
Nature has always been a source of inspiration for the design of the human environment. The analysis of biological constructions can not only lead to astonishing technical solutions but can also inspire the design of architecture. Bionics is a fascinating border area between pure research and practical application: biologists, chemists, physicists, mineralogists, and paleontologists meet up with material scientists, engineers, and architects and transfer their knowledge to architecture and construction. Using numerous practical examples, this illustrated introduction traces the process from the understanding of how something functions, to abstraction- ?for example, in computer models- ?and the construction of initial prototypes, through to fully functional manufacture and production.
