New Masters of Poster Design: Poster Design for the Next Century
|
|
Artist/Designer: John Foster
Fabulous coffee table book. This book showcases their breathtaking artwork, which has proven that the poster can still serve as a worthy communications tool. In doing so, they've brought the poster back to prominence.
In much the way that the
CD replaced the album, the poster has waned as a messaging vehicle. The
poster has now become a postcard and e-mail blast, leaving many to long
for the lost age when posters were not only major promotional vehicles,
but also artwork worthy of framing.
Some of the world's best
designers just could not stand idle while the poster fell by the
wayside. They turned to the poster for personal expression and as an
outlet from more restrictive mediums.
In this book, John Foster has compiled the
world's finest new work at the height of this rebirth. There is
currently no book on the market that can claim it features a
"definitive" poster collection.
