Publié à l'occasion de l'exposition présentée du 21 mai au 20 août 2011 dans le cadre du 22e Festival international de l'Affiche et du Graphisme (*), puis du 4 novembre au 24 décembre 2011, dans le cadre du Festival Lanterna magica de Marseille. À travers ses milliers de dessins, polaroids, collages, affiches..., Edward Fella (1938) explore depuis le début des années 1960 la typographie, inventant un style dont la singularité lui vaut une reconnaissance internationale. Syncrétique et polysémique, son oeuvre est le lieu d'un dialogue permanent entre art et design, et s'inscrit dans une filiation complexe qui part de l'Art nouveau, passe par Dada, le surréalisme, l'expressionnisme abstrait, le pop art, la beat generation, le graphisme psychédélique... Bilingue français-anglais. (*) Catalogue : 978-2-35017-237-8.

Known worldwide as a creative darling, Mike Perry’s celebrated DIY style of hand-drawn rendering has influenced a generation of contemporary designers and illustrators. Though Perry publishes zines, runs a magazine, makes clothing, has curated three successful books, and has painted, sculpted, silk-screened, and drawn on anything and everything, Wondering Around Wandering is his first monograph. And, in tune with his whimsical nature, this book functions as a true artist’s book. Perry has carefully designed each page of this book, placing old work next to new and sometimes even reworking old work to make it new again. With explosive fluorescent colors, various paper stocks, and five four-page zines bound into the book, this volume is an object that must be experienced. With his playful approach to life and art, it is no surprise that Perry is considered the grandfather (or grandson) of this aesthetic. Artists, designers, hip trendsetters, children, the young-at-heart, and anyone interested in DIY culture will treasure this amazing project.

In this book you will find the covers of design magazines, journals and periodicals of all kinds. They cover many topics - graphic design, typography, architecture, interiors, print, theory and history. But above all, they are brilliant specimens of innovative visual design. There's no better place to view the stylistic rollercoaster of graphic design than the covers of design magazines - it's a fast-track education in the history of design and typography. As Steven Heller notes: "As we head deeper into the age of hand-held devices, covers will become obsolete. So, it is for this reason that preserving and archiving these documents of international design, one cover at a time, is beyond useful."

"The Palace of Typographic Masonry is dedicated to the splendour and diversity of the graphic languages. Founded by Dutch graphic designer Richard Niessen, this imaginary building serves as a speculative platform for the variety, poetry and digressions of graphic design. The Palace presents the craft in an interdisciplinary cultural historical context and posits a new theory for the profession. Join us on a tour that takes you past more than 360 Palace 'exhibits'. A progress through nine stages: the departments of Sign, Symbol and Ornament; Construction, Poetics and Play; Order, Craft and Practice. Philosopher and writer Dirk van Weelden will serve you as your guide, offering his reflections on the items on display and introducing you to the people we meet when we enter a room"--Publisher's website.
