Its legendary founding principals, Seymour Chwast and Milton Glaser, created a graphic design laboratory that mined the traditions of the past to presage the eclecticism of the future, and took design in a bold, new direction. Pushing the limits of visual tradition, the studio developed a visual code for its time and altered the course of graphic style and design practice for subsequent generations." "Pus Pin's place in design history is nowhere better revealed than in its signature periodical The Push Pin Graphic - a stylish, brash, free-form showcase for the studio's talents and personal interests. For The Push Pin Graphic: A Quarter Century of Innovative Design and Illustration, Chwast and Glaser join design historian Steven Heller and designer Martin Venezky to cull the best of the studio's quirky, celebrated periodical. Featuring the covers and select spreads from each of the eighty-six issues of the publication, The Push Pin Graphic is the first comprehensive account of this design milestone - a unique glimpse into the creative output of a firm that continues to inspire designers to this day."--Cover.]]></description><link>https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S109C6173014</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S109C6173014</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Chwast, Seymour]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sat, 31 Jan 2004 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/6173014109</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>A Quarter Century of Innovative Design and Illustration</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780811841030/MC.GIF&amp;client=hennp&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Where's My Cat?]]></title><description><![CDATA[With bright, whimsical art, this humorous guessing game and visual puzzle from a legendary graphic designer will delight design fans of all ages. Is that a table--or a cow? You won't believe your eyes as this humorous guessing game and visual puzzle from award-winning graphic designer Seymour Chwast, co-founder of the legendary Push Pin Studios, transforms a simple object into something completely different. Each delightfully drawn initial image is revealed, after a page turn, to be part of a larger or more elaborate thing. The objects become both more complex and sillier--ball and toaster? Nah, it's a bulldog--as we make our way to the final transformation, a pair of scissors that becomes the face of the cat we've been waiting for.

James Thurber was to the twentieth century what Mark Twain was to the nineteenth. At one point, his books were the most read of any American in the world. His work could be found anywhere--from the pages of the New Yorker to the pages of children's books, from illustrated advertisements to tea towels and dresses. Now, in celebration of the 125th anniversary of Thurber's birth, A Mile and a Half of Lines: The Art of James Thurber is a long overdue introduction and reintroduction to James Thurber and the artwork that fundamentally changed American cartoons. Including some 260 drawings, this collection is the first comprehensive focus on his work as an artist, a cartoonist, and an illustrator. With commentary from a host of preeminent cartoonists and writers, including Ian Frazier, Seymour Chwast, and Michael Maslin, A Mile and a Half of Lines celebrates the significance of Thurbers spontaneous, unstudied, and novel drawing style that not only altered the nature of American cartooning but also expanded the very possibilities of an illustrated line. Coinciding with the first major retrospective of Thurber's art presented by the Columbus Museum of Art in 2019, A Mile and a Half of Lines showcases both classic Thurber as well as visual material never before seen in print."-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S109C5981465</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S109C5981465</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 2019 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/5981465109</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>The Art of James Thurber</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780814214008/MC.GIF&amp;client=hennp&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Mark Twain's War Prayer]]></title><description><![CDATA["Written in 1910 in his 70th year, Mark Twain, having lived through 14 wars waged just by his own country on others, declined to publish this poetic despairing reproof against patriotism. His regular illustrator Daniel Beard even urged Twain to issue the piece, to which the author replied, "No, I have told the whole truth in that, and only dead men can tell the truth in this world. It can be published after I am dead." It took 13 years after his passing for that prophecy to be fulfilled--and now, another 102 years later, the legendary illustrator and graphic designer Seymour Chwast (himself 92 years young) has fulfilled Beard's dream of enriching the fable with illustration. Chwast brings every aspect of his skills to this interpretation: drawing, design, typography, type design, pastel painting and computer color all sit alongside each other with Twain's text in pages that expand and pace the original. With another century and a quarter of warfare passed since its writing, Chwast's artwork echoes advances in technology but Twain's message about the pointlessness of patriotism as a marketing hook for death is only more pointed today."--Amazon.com.]]></description><link>https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S109C6592335</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S109C6592335</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Twain, Mark, 1835-1910]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2023 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/6592335109</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781683969594/MC.GIF&amp;client=hennp&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Mighty Elvis]]></title><description><![CDATA[Revel in this commemoration of Elvis' life in the form of a large-format art book told through the unique vision of legendary graphic novelist, designer and illustrator Seymour Chwast. Beautifully illustrated throughout, it presents an enhanced portrait of one of America's greatest celebrities. Spearheading a new music form that, combined with an attitude and a look, would change the world, Elvis Presley became one of the most important cultural figures of the second half of the 20th century. With text by author Steven Brower (SATCHMO: THE LIFE AND ART OF LOUIS ARMSTRONG), THE MIGHTY ELVIS reminds us of the continuing stardom of one of the most popular American singers of all time. Through Chwast's illustrations, cartoons, and comics we get to relive his early life, his meteoric rise to fame, and how he was affected by, and in turn affected, the world of music in the many genres he mastered. The book covers his first appearances on television, Graceland, his meeting with President Nixon, his wedding to Priscilla, his inspiration from Captain Marvel, Jr., and much more! Millions of fans loved him, purchased his records, attended his sold out shows and went to his thirty-three films. Death, forty years ago, has not diminished his fame. Elvis lives!]]></description><link>https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S109C5991387</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S109C5991387</guid><category><![CDATA[EBOOK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Brower, Steven, 1969-]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Thu, 31 Jan 2019 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://hclib.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/5991387109</comments><format>EBOOK</format><subtitle>A Graphic Biography</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781684068043/MC.GIF&amp;client=hennp&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item></channel></rss>
