DO THE WRITE THING

Descripción

22 x 30 cm. sewn hardback. 344 pages. The book contains interviews with the following master calligraphers: Maria Eugénia Roballos, Francesca Baisetton, Christopher Haanes, Carl Rohrs, Ewan Clayton, Thomas Ingmire. Do the Write Thing, Luca Barcellona's second monograph, represents the "travelogue" of a multifaceted artist who has been moving in the world of letters for nearly two decades. Ten years after the bestseller Take Your Pleasure Seriously, Barcellona gives new suggestions through a large selection of new works - commissioned or personal projects - with which he recounts the maturation of his own taste and creative approach. From more traditional calligraphy works to works on large surfaces, passing through graphic design, illustration, engraving and typography, and arriving at recent experiments with letters through VR. Hundreds of calligraphic artwork and lettering for packaging, record covers, labels, murals, and logos, as well as live performances with musicians and collected in the experience of the lettering world; a true school of life, starting from aesthetics to the spiritual path, what seasoned calligraphers know as "the way of writing." This is a more introspective book than its predecessor, reflecting at bottom the practice no longer of a calligrapher but of an artist using calligraphy. In addition to an authoritative opinion on the state of the art of this discipline, corroborated by contributions from some of Barcellona's most internationally important and recognized colleagues of the day, the book offers a new and rewarding visual experience. Its 344 pages bring together more than 500 images in an elegant volume, aimed at calligraphers and calligraphy enthusiasts, designers, communication professionals, teachers and students.
