Book Description Soft cover. Condition: New. Paperback. Pbo. 4to. (29 x 24 cm). In English and Turkish. 264 p., color ills. Chermayeff. Geismar symbols, logotypes and graphic design from the last five decades.= Chermayeff. Geismar son 50 yilin amblem, logo ve tasarimlari. [Exhibition catalogue]. Considered as one of the most brilliant graphic designers of the 20th century, Ivan Chermayeff has created a number of truly memorable designs with his partner Tom Geismar. Through his unique and exceptional work on the emblem, logo and corporate identity designs of Koç Holding and various other Koç companies, he has made it possible for the names of these institutions, and by extension Turkey, to be acknowledged by the world of design. Since its founding in 1957, Chermayeff & Geismar has pioneered a transformation in the practice of graphic design. Located in New York but working for clients in many countries, especially Turkey, they have pursued a collaborative, multidisciplinary approach across a broad range of projects and disciplines, from the development of scores of famous trademarks to the design of notable museum exhibitions, from hundreds of imaginative posters for cultural events to largescale artworks for distinguished architectural projects. Throughout all these tasks, Chermayeff & Geismar's work has remained consistent, not in style, but in its approach to design. Accepting the Modernist ideal that design is a problem-solving discipline, they have sought to humanize that ideal through humor, artistic invention and an entrepreneurial spirit.

This edition was limited to 1000 copies. Out of print. Scarce. Published on the occasion of a major retrospective exhibition at the Suna and Ínan Kiraç Foundation Pera Museum, Istanbul, organized with the collaboration of Magnum Photos. New. From the publisher: "In this exhibition Josef Koudelka reveals a side of himself we rarely see because it is usually covered up by the striking aesthetic quality of his photographs. With time this apparent globetrotter has shown himself to be an engaged photographer whose now world-renowned, fundamental subject matter is, internally, always related to his native land, whether as a conscious message or out of a subconscious need. In this work the local dimension meets the universal. The retrospective takes stock of all the stages of Koudelka's work and its main thematic areas. The exhibition opens with a set of rare original prints from the late 1950s and early 1960s. They are followed by two parallel topics from the 1960s - Koudelka's key series Gypsies, and, on the other hand, his work for respected Czech theatres. In Prague, Koudelka met important figures in the arts, such as the theatre directors Otomar Krejca and Jan Grossman and the writer-dramatists Josef Topol and Václav Havel, who helped to maintain the continuity of Czech culture when it was under heavy ideological pressure from the totalitarian state. An important part of Koudelka's work is the Invasion series made in Prague, in August 1968. Shortly afterwards, in 1970, he emigrated, and the resultant feelings of being uprooted found expression in photographs which, as a series, are called Exiles. The two series, Invasion and Exiles, may be understood as a whole that is related to the Czech situation, its causes and effects. With increasing frequency and gravity his work came to include both politics (as concern for public affairs) and his own personal themes of searching and finding, all within the problematic reality of the contemporary world. Shortly after leaving his homeland he began to work with Magnum Photos, and, in 1974, became the only Czech full member of this international agency. After returning to Czechoslovakia for the first time since his departure, Koudelka photographed the devastation of the natural environment in the Ore Mountains of Bohemia, from 1990 to 1994. The photographs exhibited and published as The Black Triangle, tie in to the set made with a panoramic camera in the northern France, an area that has also been greatly affected by human intervention. These photographs became part of Koudelka's large project called Chaos, which the current retrospective concludes with. In the devastated landscape of today, the photographer has found 'tragic untamed beauty', the search for which may be understood as Koudelka's lifelong topic.". Seller Inventory # 105195
