From 1958 to 1973 the Young Art Circle of Fulda (JUKU) was
intensively engaged with post-war modernist art. With its mentor
Karlfried Staubach almost a hundred exhibitions were carried out
that not only enriched the cultural life of the German city of
Fulda but shook it up on many occasions. This volume deals not with
the reconstruction of regional art and cultural history but rather
with the rediscovery of an episode in German post-war art. By way
of example are Franz Erhard Walther and Verena Pfisterer, who
continued their artistic genesis in JUKU as contemporaries of
Beuys, Richter and others at the Dusseldorf Art Academy. The
graphic prints published to finance the JUKU gallery, and the
exhibition catalogues, designed too with the group's own print
works, are shown in full for the very first time. Artists include:
Karl-Oskar Aha, Rudolf Benz, Karin Boese, Manfred Buse, Dieter
Ebert, Erich Fischer, Gertraut Fuchs, Ellinor Giebel, Pedro Herzig,
Erhard Imhof, Egon Knapp, Helmut Kopetzky, Jean-Luc Mercie, Oswald
Pejas, Verena Pfisterer, Thomas Rucker, Thomas-Peter Schardt,
Gisbert Seng, Karlfried Staubach, Robert Sturm, Franz Erhard
Walther and Barbel Zielke. Text in German, with full English
translations in the appendix.
Following up on the best-selling Bibliotheca Universalis logo
manual, this second volume focuses on corporate identity. In a
globalized world, more and more symbols convey values such as
trust, quality, or reliability. This catalog comprehensively breaks
down how texts, images, and ideas are condensed into distinctive
brands. From airlines and groceries, sportswear and computers,
museums, and magazines, to car brands, music labels,
pharmaceuticals, and internet portals, this band offers around
4,500 brand logos including complete background information about
designers, year of origin, and country, as well as brands and
companies. A great reference book for anyone interested in the
ideas and concepts that branding is based on. About the series

Over the past half century, computing has profoundly altered the
ways stories are imagined and told. Immersive, narrative, and
database technologies transform creative practices and hybrid
spaces revealing and concealing the most fundamental acts of human
invention: making stories. The Digital Imaginary illuminates these
changes by bringing leading North American and European writers,
artists and scholars, like Sharon Daniel, Stuart Moulthrop, Nick
Montfort, Kate Pullinger and Geof Bowker, to engage in discussion
about how new forms and structures change the creative process.
Through interviews, commentaries and meta-commentaries, this book
brings fresh insight into the creative process from differing,
disciplinary perspectives, provoking questions for makers and
readers about meaning, interpretation and utterance. The Digital
Imaginary will be an indispensable volume for anyone seeking to
understand the impact of digital technology on contemporary
culture, including storymakers, educators, curators, critics,
readers and artists, alike.
Die Schriftmischung ist eine der grossen Herausforderungen und
gleichzeitig ein steter Reiz fur Typografen und Gestalter: Soll sie
opulent, nur begrenzt oder am besten gar nicht stattfinden? Welche
Schriften harmonieren miteinander, welche nicht? Welche erganzen
sich, lassen sich gar gegenseitig steigern? Die Fachliteratur
bietet da wenig Hilfestellung. Dieses Handbuch zeigt, dass sich fur
das Mischen von Schriften Kriterien bestimmen lassen. Es vermittelt
durch das detaillierte Betrachten der Schriftgestalt und eine
erneuerte Schriftklassifikation ein vertieftes Verstandnis fur die
Vielfalt an Schriftformen und erarbeitet durch die systematische
Analyse von Analogie und Kontrast die dringend benoetigten
Erkenntnisse zum Kombinieren von Schriften. Ein unverzichtbares
Standardwerk fur Typografen und Grafikdesigner.
