Hardcover. Condition: Used - Very Good. Sutnar's brilliant structural systems for clarifying otherwise dense industrial data placed him in the pantheon of Modernist pioneers and made him one of the visionaries of what is today called 'information design.' Visual Design in Action is a snapshot of Sutnar's American period (1939-1976), and includes graphics for Carr's Department Store, advertisements for the Vera Neumann Company, identity for Addo-X, and other stunningly contemporary works. He is best known for his total design concept for the Sweets Catalog Service and lesser known for introducing the parenthesis as a way to typographically distinguish the area code from the rest of a phone number. Visual Design in Action is a testament to the historical relevance of Modernism and the philosophical resonance of Sutnar's focus on the functional beauty of total clarity. This reprint of Visual Design in Action (originally published in limited quantities in 1961) is as spot-on about the power of design and 'design thinking' as it ever was.

Die Imagination und Tradition des Schweizerischen als Problem. München: Wilhelm Fink Verlag, 2004. OBrosch. 315 S. mit Autorenregister. - 23,5 x 15,5. * Es scheint widersprüchlich: Einerseits erklärt man das Konzept der Nationalliteratur für tot, andererseits hat die Forschung zu Nation, Nationalismus und Nationalstaat Hochkonjunktur. Sicher ist: Der Zusammenhang von Erzählen und nationaler Verortung ist nicht erledigt. Welche Rolle spielt denn aber die Kategorie des Nationalen bei der Tradierung von Imaginationsstrukturen ? Und auf welcher (kultur)theoretischen und methodischen Basis lässt sich heute in der westeuropäischen Literaturwissenschaft (wieder) über Nationales sprechen ? Ausgehend von den Problemen des Diskurses 'Schweizer Literatur' haben die Herausgeber die fantomatische Dimension des nationalliterarischen Diskurses zur Debatte gestellt, Kultur- und Literaturwissenschaftler sowie Schriftstellerinnen und Schriftsteller reflektieren die Fragestellung in Bezug auf unterschiedliche (Inter-)Nationen. - Sehr gut erhaltene Dublette aus der Bibliothek von Prof. Dr. Aleida Assmann; ihren Beitrag enthaltend: Die (De)Konstruktion nationaler Mythen und die Rolle der Literatur (S. 75 - 83).

Hardcover. Condition: Sehr gut. 1. Auflage. Z : 24 x 30 cm, 9 ½ x 11 ¾ in, 152 pages, 182 illustrations - Dafi Kühne is a Swiss designer who works with analogue and digital techniques to produce fresh and unique letterpress-printed posters. Using very different kinds of tools from a computer to a pantograph for his compositions, he pushes the boundaries of design. Never afraid of getting his hands dirty in his creative workshop, Dafi Kühne embraces the labor involved in the entire process of creating a poster, from initial idea to finished product. Fusing modern means with the century-old tradition of letterpress, he forms a new vocabulary for how to communicate through type and form in a truly contemporary way. Never retro, his work is a clever response to the search for new possibilities of graphic expression: true print.
