Hardcover. Condición: new. Hardcover. More than a truly brilliant graphic designer, Otl Aicher was a transformative thinker, photographer, typographer, ecologist, philosopher, co-founder and mentor of the renowned Hochschule fuer Gestaltung at Ulm and teacher. On the centenary of his birth, this splendidly produced and designed book looks at every facet of his career, and traces the many strands of his lasting influence. Otl Aicher is most famously known for the pictographs he designed for the 1972 summer Olympic Games in Munich. Fifty years later, his system of iconography has become a universal language, directing people to bathrooms, through subways, around airports and hospitals. But Aicher's achievements extended far beyond the world of graphic design. Filled with illustrations, photographs, documents and archival material, and enhanced by thoughtful and personal essays from leading critics, designers, and friends, this survey takes a disciplinary approach to explore Aicher's role as one of the founding figures of visual communication. We learn about Aicher's work developing corporate brands; how he created the Rotis typeface, then built architecture incorporating the font; how he collaborated with artists and architects such as Josef Albers, Alexander Kluge, and Norman Foster; and how his founding of the Ulm School of Design reflected his passion for teaching, and for an open, free, and democratic society. Aicher's achievements are evident in nearly every public space on the globe and this definitive and timely reference work rightfully places Aicher among the pioneering geniuses of the past century. AUTHORS: Winfried Nerdinger is president of the Bavarian Academy of Fine Arts in Munich. He is a former director of the Museum of Architecture in the Pinakothek der Moderne in Munich, and of the Munich Documentation Centre for the History of National Socialism. Wilhelm Vossenkuhl holds held the Chair of Philosophy I at the Ludwig-Maximilians-Universitaet in Munich. A friend of Otl Aicher, he has published widely on design theory, ethics, and the philosophy of language. SELLING POINTS: . Otl Aicher is one of the most important designers of the twentieth century. His life's work and thinking has a profound influence on design to this day. . The publication of this book falls perfectly in line with what would be the year of Otl Aicher's 100th birthday, and the 50th anniversary of the Munich Olympics, for which Aicher worked extensively on. . The book features contributions from some of the world's leading design experts, covering all aspects of Aicher's work and life. . This book will feature exclusive photos of Aicher and will be heavily inspired by his own design philosophy. 250 colour illustrations More than a truly brilliant graphic designer, Otl Aicher was a transformative thinker, photographer, typographer, ecologist, philosopher, co-founder and mentor of the renowned Hochschule fuer Gestaltung at Ulm, and teacher. On the centenary of his birth, this splendidly produced and designed book looks at every facet of his career.
