Summary:
The first complete monograph on the work of Swiss graphic designer Max Huber, one of the most significant designers of the 20th century. Huber's work was consistently innovative, and by combining painting and photography with other graphic media, he remained avant-garde throughout his career, bringing the utopian vision of the modern masters to bear on corporate typography and identity design. Three essays cover Huber's entire career from the early 1940s, including his wide-ranging work in the fields of magazine, identity and exhibition design as well as expanding on his close links with a circle of brilliant artists, designers and intellectuals such as Josef Muller-Brockmann, Achille Castiglioni and Italo Calvino, among others.

Summary:
Jonas Delaborde is a french artist (Paris, 1981) working regularly in Paris and Lyon with his fellow Hendrik Hegray (they edit the nasty & absurd Nazi Knife zine together), Kerozen and Mehdi Hercberg (Shoboshobo) or with the drawing collective Frederic Magazine. Zodiac Grind is a collection of twenty empty geometric shapes, some science fiction landscape drawings and few pictures of destructed buildings or antic carved stones. It can be seen as an attempt to build a dust bridge between some minimalist influences and a symbolist vision. Or just a bad psychedelic mix of bolivian mountains, parking maps and wallpaper's patterns. His drawings have been showed recently in two collective exhibitions with Frederic Magazine at the Nog Gallery (London) and the Musée des Tapisseries (Aix-en-Provence).
