Last Copy! Wim Crouwel: A Graphic Odyssey / Available at www.draw-down.com / This catalogue of work by the Dutch #graphicdesigner and typographer #WimCrouwel is structured around an interview by #TonyBrook which took place at Crouwel’s Amsterdam flat. Besides a list of the works reproduced on its pages, the publication is otherwise fully given over to numerous full-color images of #posters, sketches, typefaces, and other documents produced by #Crouwel as a commercial artist. According to Brooks, “the qualities of his work are plain to see: the distinctive use of abstract typographic forms; the relentless experimentation with the grid; the ability of his work to communicate. He seems to have achieved the perfect balance.” In #Japanese and English / #GraphicDesign (at Amsterdam, Netherlands) https://www.instagram.com/p/Br_WcuWg5Ax/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1xnb84ja2h2h1

Reichert is a typographer, designer, author and printer combined in one person. Take a little bit of Werkman, put in a dash of Piet Zwart combine this with the authenticity of Reichert and you have some idea of the fantastic prints he makes. Study his prints and you see mouvement and a highly original approach to printing which makes them typical Josua Reichert prints.

One of the publications http://www.ftn-books.com has for sale is the excellent Wim Crouwel designed catalogue for the 1966 Stedelijk Museum exhibition on Josua Reichert and his prints.

It is only 4 pages , but the fairly standard design by Wim Crouwel in blue was altered and printed on by Reichert with 3 special prints for this occasion. This combination of Reichert prints with Crouwel typography/design makes this for me personally one of the most valued and appreciated publications by the Stedelijk Museum in the Sixties.
