Two sets of 20 unique letterpress postcards featuring quotes by iconic Black women, from Sojourner Truth to Rosa Parks, from Harriet Tubman to Nina SimoneThis freshly commissioned set of postcards from the Detroit-based letterpress printer Amos Paul Kennedy, Jr. (born 1950) highlights the vo…ices of women of color in the Black arts and social justice movements, including Ida B. Wells, Zora Neale Hurston, Pauli Murray, Lucy Parsons and others. Sista Said features 40 postcards with 20 inspiring quotes in a keepsake box.Amos Paul Kennedy, Jr. (born 1948) was working a corporate job for ATandT when, at the age of 40, he discovered the art of letterpress printing on a tour of Colonial Williamsburg.

Hardback. Condizione: New. An unprecedented, definitive look at the school's typography and print design, from its early expressive tendencies to the functional modernism for which it is famed todayThe Bauhaus looms large as one of the most influential legacies in 20th-century graphic design. Known for its bold sans-serif typefa…ces, crisp asymmetrical grids and clean use of negative space, the school emerged as the forebearer of a new look-one that seized the tools of mass production in the creation of a radical new art. Today, just over 100 years after the Bauhaus's opening in 1919, the school's visual hallmarks have come to define modernity as it appears on the printed page.The official catalog for Letterform Archive's inaugural gallery exhibition, Bauhaus Typography at 100 explores the school's legacy in graphic and typographic design through artifacts of its own making-its books, magazines, course materials, product catalogs, stationery, promotional fliers and other ephemera.From the book's beautifully designed pages, readers learn of typographic masters László Moholy-Nagy, Herbert Bayer and Joost Schmidt, who channeled Constructivism's geometric forms and optimism for industry into printed vehicles for the school's teachings. Here is where Bauhaus typography-its rejection of serifs and capitals, embrace of experimental alphabets, insistence on universal clarity, and innovation in layering and hierarchy-took its distinctive shape.The catalog also shines light on the Bauhaus's lesser-known early forays into expressive lettering and illustration, also tracing the school's immediate impact on seminal design movements such as the New Typography and, of course, on design practitioners working today. Lavishly illustrated, carefully researched and written, and accompanied by an in-depth introduction from noted Bauhaus expert, author and curator Ellen Lupton, Bauhaus Typography at 100 is a must-have for any fan of modern design.

Paperback. Condizione: New. A graphic design masterpiece held in museum collections worldwide, now recreated in full facsimileWidely regarded as the most important Dutch designer of the last century, Piet Zwart helped rewrite the rules of modern typography. An autodidactic student of typography and printing, he incorporated elem…ents of fine art and architecture into his graphic design. He often referred to himself as a "typotect": part typographer, part architect. His best-known work, an 80-page catalog for the electrical cable manufacturer Nederlandse Kabelfabriek Delft (NKF), is a remarkable case study in visual communication, combining razor-sharp photos, playful type compositions, expressive montages and bold fields of color to transform the humble cable into a subject for experimental graphic design.Received in avant-garde circles as a model of modernist New Typography, the catalog remains a sought-after touchstone of art and design history. This first-ever facsimile of Zwart's NKF catalog reproduces the complete book with exacting details and in its original format. An accompanying critical supplement includes fascinating essays by design scholars Philip B. Meggs and Paul Stirton, a rich selection of rarely seen projects from Zwart's decade-long relationship with NKF and a translation of Zwart's original manifesto.Piet Zwart (1885-1977) originally trained as an architect at the National School of Applied Arts in Amsterdam. He incorporated aspects of Constructivism and De Stijl into his typographic work for the Nederlandse Kabelfabriek Delft and the Dutch postal service. In 2000 he was posthumously awarded "Designer of the Century" by the Association of Dutch Designers.

Paperback. Condizione: New. A graphic design masterpiece held in museum collections worldwide, now recreated in full facsimileWidely regarded as the most important Dutch designer of the last century, Piet Zwart helped rewrite the rules of modern typography. An autodidactic student of typography and printing, he incorporated elem…ents of fine art and architecture into his graphic design. He often referred to himself as a "typotect": part typographer, part architect. His best-known work, an 80-page catalog for the electrical cable manufacturer Nederlandse Kabelfabriek Delft (NKF), is a remarkable case study in visual communication, combining razor-sharp photos, playful type compositions, expressive montages and bold fields of color to transform the humble cable into a subject for experimental graphic design.Received in avant-garde circles as a model of modernist New Typography, the catalog remains a sought-after touchstone of art and design history. This first-ever facsimile of Zwart's NKF catalog reproduces the complete book with exacting details and in its original format. An accompanying critical supplement includes fascinating essays by design scholars Philip B. Meggs and Paul Stirton, a rich selection of rarely seen projects from Zwart's decade-long relationship with NKF and a translation of Zwart's original manifesto.Piet Zwart (1885-1977) originally trained as an architect at the National School of Applied Arts in Amsterdam. He incorporated aspects of Constructivism and De Stijl into his typographic work for the Nederlandse Kabelfabriek Delft and the Dutch postal service. In 2000 he was posthumously awarded "Designer of the Century" by the Association of Dutch Designers.
