ISBN10: 2940373086, ISBN13: 9782940373086, [publisher: AVA Publishing] Softcover Every season, with alarming predictability, yet another graphic design book sets out to capture definitively the zeitgeist. The blurb always makes the same claim: that the book shows the work of the newest, youngest, most innovative designers. This restless search is self-perpetuating, can never be sated and ultimately intensifies nagging fears and insecurities among designers. An understanding of design history has the reverse effect. It explains who we are and sets contemporary work in an expansive and broad landscape, one that is more objective and less introspective. Without knowledge and experience we are lost, floating in a sea of unanswered questions. Drip-dry shirts seeks to answer some of the questions. Book jacket.
