Printed Matter, Mainly Books by Jost Hochuli (English) Hardcover Book

Description: Printed Matter, Mainly Books by Jost Hochuli Estimated delivery 3-12 business days Format Hardcover Condition Brand New Description Jost Hochuli arbeitet seit 1959 als freischaffender Grafiker. Obwohl Buchgestaltungen nur einen kleinen Teil seiner Tätigkeit bilden, ist er vor allem mit ihnen bekannt geworden. Wenn in diesem Buch auch einige seiner gebrauchsgrafischen Arbeiten und der in Holz und Linol geschnittenen Schriften abgebildet werden, so geschieht das vor allem deswegen, weil dadurch zwei scheinbar unvereinbare Gestaltungsauffassungen belegt werden können, die schliesslich in seinen BÜchern zu einer Synthese gefunden haben: eine traditionelle, mittelaxiale, sich auch am geschriebenen Vorbild orientierende, und eine "moderne", die sich herleitet von der sogenannten Schweizer Typografie und somit letztlich vom Bauhaus.Das vorliegende Buch versucht einen Überblick zu geben Über das vielseitige Werk Hochulis. Die drei thematischen Blöcke "Gebrauchsgrafik", "Schriften in Holz und Linol geschnitten" und "BÜcher" werden unterbrochen durch theoretische Texte von Robin Kinross, GÜnter Karl Bose und Jost Hochuli. Eingeleitet wird die Publikation durch ein Vorwort von John Morgan als Vertreter der jÜngeren Grafikergeneration. Publisher Description Jost Hochuli has been working as a freelance graphic designer since 1959. Although book design forms only a small part of his activity, he has become well-known particularly through this work. Besides his book designs, several of his commercial artwork pieces and typefaces are pictured in this volume. The book is thus the ultimate synthesis of Hochulis works. It is structured in three thematic blocks "Commercial Graphic Design", "Typefaces Cut in Wood and Linoleum" and "Books" which are accompanied by theoretical texts while generously documented by numerous examples from Hochulis work. Author Biography Jost Hochuli is a world-renowned book designer living in St. Gallen, Switzerland. He is the author of numerous books on graphic design and typography, including Designing Books.
