"Graphic Classics" presents 500 of the world's most important graphic designs in one large-format volume - from the Gutenberg Bible to the album art of Joy Division, and from anonymous creators to industry icons such as Aleksandr Rodchenko, Emory Douglas, Paula Scher, Ahn Sang-soo, and Julia Born. Reconceived from "The Phaidon Archive of Graphic Design", it highlights designers reshaping the graphic culture of today, alongside earlier pioneers who charted the path for others to follow, making this collection more comprehensive, compelling - and relevant - than ever before.
A true homage to graphic design through the ages, "Graphic Classics" is the perfect reference guide for design and art lovers, enthusiasts, and professionals at any stage of their careers, as well as all those interested in and impacted by visual communication.
