Zum Ende seiner Zeit als Professor für Typografie an der HGB veröffentlicht Günter Karl Bose zusammen mit André Grau, Künstlerischer Mitarbeiter im Studiengang Buchkunst/ Grafik-Design, eine Auswahl von rund 60 Büchern, die in den vergangenen knapp 20 Jahren in der Klasse für Typografie unter ihrer Betreuung entstanden sind. Auch dieser Band ist ein Klassenprojekt, in dem sich die aktuellen Studierenden mit den Arbeiten ehemaliger Studierender der Klasse auseinander gesetzt haben. Fast alle in dem Band versammelten Bücher gewannen Auszeichnungen wie den Sächsischen Staatspreise für Design, Goldene Lettern, Bronze-, Gold- und Silbermedaillen im Wettbewerb „Schönste Bücher aus aller Welt“, „Förderpreise für junge Buchgestalter“ sowie Preise des Typedirectors Clubs New York. Damit spiegelt der Band nicht nur die Nachhaltigkeit und Qualität der Lehre in der Kunst des Büchermachens an der HGB, sondern auch die Einzigartigkeit des Klassenverbands, die an der Akademie strukturell durch den Unterricht im Fachklassensystem verankert ist.

Man nannte Willy Fleckhaus (1925–1983) den „teuersten Bleistift Deutschlands“ und Deutschlands ersten Art Director. Wie kein Zweiter hat er die visuelle Kultur der noch jungen Bundesrepublik in den sechziger, siebziger und achtziger Jahre geprägt. Er verschmolz die Ratio der Schweizer Grafik mit der leidenschaftlichen Emotionalität des amerikanischen Magazindesigns. International bekannt wurde er durch sein bahnbrechendes Design der Jugendzeitschrift Twen, die durch ihr inhaltliches Konzept, großzügige Gestaltung, moderne Typografie und Fotografie gleich mehrere Generationen prägte. Fleckhaus arbeitete mit bedeutenden Fotografen seiner Zeit wie z.B. Will McBride, Thomas Höpker, Hans Feurer, Charlotte March, Ulrich Mack, Guido Mangold, Stefan Moses, Reinhart Wolf. Neben seiner Arbeit für Twen entwickelte er auch Layoutkonzepte für die Illustrierte Quick (in ihren guten Jahren) oder das Supplement der Frankfurter Allgemeinen Zeitung (ab 1980), Buchreihen wie die in den Farben des Regenbogens gehaltene Edition Suhrkamp oder die Taschenbücher des Insel Verlages. Die Autoren Michael Koetzle und Carsten Wolff (der mit seinem Büro das Buch kongenial gestaltete) schreiben endlich die umfassende Monografie über einen der prägenden wichtigsten Gestalter des 20. Jahrhunderts. Das Buch erscheint zu den Ausstellungen im MAK Köln, Museum für Kunst- und Gewerbe, Hamburg und Villa Stuck, München, weitere Ausstellungen in Planung. Willy Fleckhaus (1925-1983) was one of the most innovative, creative and influential graphic designers in postwar Germany. He became internationally known for his groundbreaking work on the lifestyle magazine Twen, which attracted generations of readers with its generous layouts, modern typography and distinctive choice of house photographers such as (among others) Will McBride, Charlotte March, Guido Mangold, Reinhart Wolf. He invented the position of the „art director“, when this job description did not yet exist in Germany and earned himself the nickname of “Germany’s most expensive pencil”. Beside his longterm involvement with Twen he worked for the Frankfurter Allgemeine Magazine (from 1980 onwards), the magazine Quick, developped book series such as Edition Suhrkamp with its famous rainbow-coloured covers, exhibition designs for the Photokina trade fair in Cologne, and the logo of the Westdeutscher Rundfunk broadcasting corporation. The book, the first comprehensive monograph on Willy Fleckhaus in an international edition, includes texts by Michael Koetzle and Carsten Wolff (who also took over the book design), both long time collectors of Fleckhaus work samples. Published to coincide with the travelling exhibition at MAK Cologne, Museum für Kunst und Gewerbe, Hamburg and Villa Stuck, Munich, further venues planned.

In 1949, the competition »Die besten Plakate des Jahres« (The Best Posters of the Year) took place for the first time in the newly founded Federal Republic of Germany. Designers could enter poster designs from the past year, a jury of experts awarded prizes for the best works. From 1966 onwards, there was such an annual competition in the GDR too. Many of the commended works from that time are today amongst the canon of German and international design history. The book tells the eventful history of the com­peti­tions and their changing shape over the decades. The picture section shows over 250 posters from 1949 to 2000 from a total of almost 4,000 award-winning works. An all-German poster history, which visualizes lasting changes as well as transient design trends and shows many of the best German posters, including works by Helmut Brade, cyan, Michael Engelmann, Frieder Grindler, Erhard Grüttner, Rudolf Grüttner, Hans Hillmann, Günther Kieser, Uwe Loesch, Holger Matthies, Pierre Mendell, Rolf Felix Müller, Volker Pfüller, Ott+Stein, Gunter Rambow and many others.

Muita Animação showcases a selection of Portuguese party posters that are very prominent in the local landscape because of their bold design as well as their unique production method: Printed on plastic and mounted on streetposts and trees, they mostly survive the date they announce and therefore can even be seen on Google Streetview. Zurich Artist Noël Fischer started to collect these posters a few years back and has now — together with design studio Hammer — published them in this whimsical A3-sized book. This collection might as well be Jan Tschichold’s worst nightmare.

Quel point commun existe-t-il entre Tadanori Yokoo – un des plus grands artistes contemporains japonais, lauréat du Praemium Imperiale 2015 – et les mangas de science-fiction? Apparemment, aucun. Et pourtant, outre le fait que les noms de Yokoo et des mangaka soient peu connus en Europe – Osamu Tezuka est encore relativement inconnu ici, alors qu’il est surnommé le «dieu du manga» au Japon –, les affiches sérigraphiées du premier procèdent d'un mode de création sensiblement identique à ces bandes dessinées tant adulées de nos jours. Les posters de Yokoo et les mangas d'après-guerre s'inspirent de motifs au départ non japonais (Pop Art, science-fiction), les font entrer en résonance avec l'esthétique nippone (emakimono, ukiyo-e) et créent des œuvres hybrides qui, à leur tour, influenceront les travaux des artistes ou dessinateurs européens et américains. Publié à l’occasion de l’exposition éponyme à la Maison d’Ailleurs d’Yverdon-les-Bains, cet ouvrage richement illustré fait état de ce dialogue original entre les œuvres de Yokoo et les pages originales de Tezuka, et montre de manière spectaculaire la façon dont les créateurs japonais ont hybridé les traditions nippones et les tendances occidentales afin de réinventer une identité culturelle mis à mal après la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Un ouvrage explosif et fascinant, qui passionnera non seulement les amateurs de mangas et de pop art, mais également tous ceux désireux de faire connaissance avec deux figures majeures de l’art populaire japonais.

Published as part of ‘Motion’, an exhibition by Dutch artist and graphic designer Karel Martens at Kunstverein München, this book is the seventh instalment of the ‘Companion’ series produced by the Kunstverein and Roma Publications. With concept and design by Julie Peeters, the greater part of the book’s content is derived from the video ‘Not for Resale’, a sequence of photographs of the array of images and objects found on the artist’s studio wall, taken in 2000. Material from two other videos, ‘Lost & Found’ (2004) and ‘Tol’ (2008), is also included, along with a transcription of a conversation between Martens and Chris Fitzpatrick, director of the Kunstverein.
