One of the great protagonists in design and contemporary graphics narrates and illustrates thirty years of an artistic journey.
Twenty-five years from the publication of Milton Glaser Graphic Design, which still heads the long-seller lists for books on design, Milton Glaser looks to the future with Art is Work, a brilliant collection of his own work and of the contemporary scene. The book is illustrated with over 500 colour photos accompanied by explanatory text written by Glaser, providing privileged insights into his artistic philosophy and his method of work. In these pages Glaser narrates the history of countless projects: from the initial inspiration to the attempts to transform the intuitions into images to arrive at the final product; he reveals the discussions that took place over the ideas that were discarded and over the alternative proposals; he explains the techniques used, influences experienced and favourite and recurrent themes.
