Summary:
Dot Dot Dash! is brought to you by the editors of Pictoplasma and Pictoplasma 2. Expanding on the widely popular subject of contemporary character design, this definitive volume showcases an up-to-date survey of the personalities and characters that have entered the third dimension. Vinyl figures, plush dolls, designer toys and action figures can be seen as a new movement in contemporary design, art and popular culture. Interest in these three-dimensional toys have surged, drawing on pop culture, graffiti and visual art. The new-generation-characters appear cute, cuddly and innocuous at first, but are often elicit, subversive and politically incorrect. Not intended for child's play, they are highly esteemed by teens and adults alike. Each is a work of art, often created by world-famous artists and many of them are produced independently in limited editions and become highly sought after collectibles. A recent trend of character applications aspiring from inherent crossovers of the character and art worlds is also taking form in sculptures and objects, creating a new art market where artists are progressively moving beyond the boundaries of the gallery and extending their work to a disparate audience. This voluptuous volume exhibits the expansive scope of designs and objects in the ultimate compilation of contemporary character design.

Summary:
The volume, realized in co-operation with the Vitra Design Museum is both the catalogue of an internationally travelling exhibition and one of the first monographical studies entirely devoted to the subject of children’s games and furniture. Furniture and games for children, irrespective of culture or period, can be perceived as vehicles for communicating society’s attitudes towards learning, the child’s physical and phychological development, safety, order in the family, territory, the place of play and patterns of social behaviour; although the child, by contrast, regards them as largely interchangeable objects in the serious work of play, the organization of modern society tends to give them always more importance, changing them into real products of design. The volume aims to explore the world of childhood throughout the different types of furniture artefacts and games from various periods and cultures in the world which illuminate the changing relationship between children and adults, the growing attention to child-centred provision and educational values and the fundamental role of playing in the history of childhood of different countries. The catalogue essays are written by chilhood specialists, social historians, ethnologists, educationalists, industrials designers (specialist in playground and play equipment) and experts on children living in the various cultures of the world: Lucy Bullivant, Mike Scaife, Linda Pollock, Eileen Adams, Günter Beltzig, Ingeborg Weber-Kellermann, Gerhard Kubik, Tina Wodiung and Sally Kevill-Davies.
