Title: The Graphic Edge
Description: London, Booth-Clibborn. 1995. (ISBN: 1873968698). Soft Cover, 4to - over 9¾" - 12" tall. A Fine unmarked copy. A large format volume of 207 pages. The Graphic Edge continues the exploration of experimantal graphic design initiated by the ground-breaking survey 'Typography Now: The Next Wave' and forms an essential companion to that volume. It shows new work from the international cutting edge which is having a profound impact on the way forward-looking designers think about graphic design. The approaches shown, in more than 250 colour images, range from the cool and considered, to the raw and brutal; from densely layered constructions made fluid and expressive by the new digital tools, to an accessible conceptualism inspired by media artists investigating language and type. What links these designers is their search for a graphic language appropriate to changing times and their refusal to compromise or stand still. An essay by Rick Poynor, founding editor of Eye, the international review of graphic design, highlights essential themes and influences on the new work and discusses the ideas and approaches of key designers.
