A propos de cet article

VIOLENCE AND THE AMERICAN DREAM Number 55 Monthly Graphic Milton Glaser [Designer], Sarah Wilson [Editor], Victor Comerchero [Text] Published by The Push Pin Studios, Inc. New York, 1969, first edition. Softcover, square format, printed paper vellum wraps, side staple bound, 8vo, 16 pages, graphically illustrated with 4 color photographic plates of "torn" paper, three plates are die-cut with an area of text intentionally missing from the verso. Glaser is playing with the illusion of tearing. To add to the complexity, he reprinted the missing text on the vellum wrapper so the reader could replace the missing parts and read the entire text. The text examines cultural themes of violence. VERY GOOD Condition: tight, bright, clean and unmarked. Uncommon. THE SOUTH Push Pin Graphic. Number 54 Seymour Chwast [Designer], Sarah Wilson [Editor] Published by The Push Pin Studios, Inc. New York, 1969, first edition. Softcover, square format, 8.5" x 8", white paper wraps, side staple bound, 20 pages including covers, die-cut bullet hole through and through, graphically illustrated with 7 full page color collages. Designed Chwast in response to the violence of the civil rights movement. Juxtaposing portraits of people killed by racists over images of the Antebellum South, a physical hole punched through each of their heads. Across from these montages are popular Southern songs alongside biographies of those murdered. The final page inverts this structure, marking an end to injustice. VERY GOOD Condition: just some light signs of age/use and one leaf has a thin stiff horizontal production crease. Uncommon. In 1954 Cooper Union art school students Seymour Chwast (b.1931), Reynold Ruffins (1930-2021), Edward Sorel (b. 1929), and Milton Glaser (1929-2020) founded Push Pin Studios in New York City, creating what would become the most influential American design studio of the mid 20th century. Their eclectic graphic style was highly referential, blending motifs and letterforms from various art movements and cultures. They rejected the rigidity of modern minimalism, representational illustration, and sans-serif typefaces in favor of brightly colored, abstracted illustration that combined images and often flamboyant or novelty lettering that looked back to the late 19th and early 20th century poster styles of Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec, Lucian Bernhard, and Ludwig Hohlwein. Push Pin Graphic was their monthly promotional publication, only 3000 to 5000 copies of each issue were printed, but it was highly influential for its unique approach to visual form and content among graphic and advertising designers. A wellspring of visual eclecticism during a period when Swiss Modernism was the reigning style, the Graphic not only showcased their overarching sensibility and its individual members' talents, but it also covered a wide range of issues and themes, some of them controversial.…
