Summary:
In producing this book, America Sanchez has photographed and arranged some 1,825 examples of Barcelona urban graphic art: shop signs, door numbers, vignettes, allegories, emblems and pictograms which illustrate the uses of the city and make them legible. In so doing, Sanchez has rescued from anonymity a multitudinous cast of spontaneous graphic artists: sign-writers, painters, engravers, carvers, smiths, stained-glass workers. With this, he has inaugurated a new field of study of everyday life, the main themes of which Norberto Chaves discusses in his introductory remarks to the work. A superficial gaze will find nothing here but a collection of curiosities, products of popular inventiveness. The more attentive gaze, however, will discover a genuine graphic treasure. With this book, America Sanchez makes a cultural contribution as important, if not more so, as his estimable work as a graphic designer. As a result, Barcelona can see itself in the mirror of its anonymous graphic art and thereby recoup another aspect of its enormously rich heritage. There are almost two thousand images, representing all the barrios of Barcelona, and classified in some 150 variations on seventeen major themes: the human figure, flora, fauna, figurative and abstract iconography, shields, plaques, tiles, murals, signs, captions, monograms, numbers, ornaments, ironwork. Two hundred and thirty pages and four gatefolds, arbitrarily arranged, the aim of which is to awaken the curiosity of, and to surprise, the "pedestrian". The author himself writes that: "The book is open to a wide range of readings, as a volume of photos, a graphic document of the city's heritage, or as a reference manual of graphic solutions for designers, typographers, architects and interior designers. It is also a meditation on the industrial, commercial and institutional fabric of different eras of the city". This book was originally published in 2001. The new edition includes a red fabric-covered slip-case.
