Résumé:
Jan van Toorn is one of the most significant and influential Dutch graphic designers to have emerged since the early 1960s. While graphic design often does little more than give unthinking visual form to the status quo, Van Toorn focused on meaning rather than smooth stylistic expression and developed critical alternatives to the usual design world conventions. Van Toorn aligned himself with the reflexive tradition of art and communication exemplified by Brecht and Godard. His designs persistently call attention to their status as visual contrivances, obliging the viewer to make an effort to process their complexities. Van Toorn wanted the public to measure the motives of both the client and the designer who mediates the client’s message against their own experiences of the world. He hoped in this way to stimulate a more active and sceptical view of art, communication, media ownership and society. Projects such as Van Toorn’s posters and catalogues for the Van Abbemuseum in Eindhoven and his long-running series of calendars for the printing firm Mart.Spruijt are powerful demonstrations of graphic design used as a means of commentary and as a tool of critique. Later, as director of the Jan van Eyck Academy, Van Toorn drew together all the strands of his critical practice into a multi-levelled educational initiative that urged designers to think harder about design’s role in shaping contemporary reality.

Résumé:
Tibor Kalman, probably best known for the witty designs of his company M and his provocative work for Benetton's Colors magazine, defines the eclectic multidisciplinary approach that has come to characterize graphic design in the past decade. Tibor, designed by Michael Bierut of Pentagram and edited by I.D. Magazine senior writer Peter Hall, is the first comprehensive collection of Kalman's work and ideas. This full-color title--numbering over 400 pages--includes a pictorial manifesto by Kalman, revealing his thoughts on magazines, advertising, sex, bookstores, food, and the design profession. Product designs, stills and storyboards from his film and video projects, and spreads from his book and magazine work are included, creating what Kalman calls "an almanac of oddities." An impressive list of essay contributors includes Steven Heller, David Byrne, Jay Chiat, Kurt Andersen, Paola Antonelli, Isaac Mizrahi, Ingrid Sischy, Chee Pearlman, and Rick Poynor.

Résumé:
Bunpei Yorifuji, auteur et illustrateur japonais, propose dans 'Le dessin et les mots' une réflexion personnelle et éclairée sur son métier de designer graphique. En interrogeant sa pratique, il revient sur des thématiques propres à ce domaine comme le rapport texte-image, l’influence des technologies sur le travail du designer, l’équilibre fragile entre esthétique et lisibilité, ou encore le rôle social du designer. Ces réflexions exprimées sous forme d’un carnet de notes personnelles sont nourries d’anecdotes et d’exemples illustrés. Pour compléter ces thématiques générales, une partie de l’ouvrage se concentre plus précisément sur le design de livres et la conception de couvertures. L’auteur y décrit avec beaucoup de pédagogie et d’humour différentes manières d’aborder ce travail si particulier d’alliance des mots et du dessin. La question que pose Bunpei Yorifuji pourrait être : qu’est-ce que le design graphique, et comment exercer la profession de graphiste aujourd’hui? L’auteur propose d’y répondre comme à son habitude, en texte et en image, mêlant dessins pédagogiques et recherche approfondie.

Résumé:
Considéré aujourd’hui comme l’un des plus célèbres graphistes américains, Paul Rand a marqué l’histoire du design graphique par sa production, notamment celle de logos pour de grandes entreprises telles que IBM, ABC ou UPS qui restent encore majoritairement inchangés aujourd’hui. Véritable artiste moderne, Paul Rand est parvenu à allier certaines influences avant-gardistes européennes (notamment celles du Bauhaus, du mouvement De Stijl, ou du constructivisme russe) au fonctionnalisme américain, donnant ainsi naissance à une nouvelle conception du design. Son travail sur les identités visuelles a ainsi transformé en profondeur le champ de la publicité en faisant du design un outil commercial à part entière. Ce livre sera accompagné de près de 150 images en noir et blanc et 70 en couleur qui donnent à voir l’ensemble du travail de Paul Rand, et d’une postface de Steven Heller, journaliste et directeur artistique américain.

Résumé:
Based on the in-depth research that world-renowned Dutch designer Irma Boom conducted into the development of the book in the library of the Vatican, it is at once a survey of the history of the book and a miniature Irma Boom retrospective, reproducing a selection of more than 350 books she has designed over the course of her eminent career. Alongside reproductions, Boom extensively discusses the relationship between her work and older book forms. With this tiny (two and a half by three inches), slipcased, 1,000-page, richly illustrated volume, itself an exceptional feat of bookmaking, Boom aims to inspire and encourage a new generation of designers to experiment and develop new ways of conceiving this simplest and most enduringly effective of forms.
