Japanese Graphics

Publisher: Gingko Press
ISBN: 9789889809720
Category : Commercial art
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
Despite the fact that the Japanese graphic design scene has encountered countless cultural invasions of late, Japanese graphics have withstood these incursions and continue to communicate on a common wavelength. This is precisely what makes Japanese graphics so unique and so difficult to imitate. Regardless of genre or aesthetic preference Japanese graphic artists all seem to aspire and adhere to a specific code of streamlined beauty. Japanese Graphics: Beautifully Streamlined focuses on the creative scene in 21st Century Japan from the perspective of the Japanese graphic artist and probes deeply into the psyches of some of Japan's most influential and internationally successful designers. As with most books from IdN, Japanese Graphics is exquisitely packaged, featuring a die-cut waveform top edge and translucent plastic slipcase, the very embodiment of the "Beautifully Streamlined" aesthetic.

Graphic Japan
Author: Natalie Avella
Publisher: Rotovision
ISBN: 9782880467715
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 236
Book Description
From the kitsch cuteness of Hello Kitty to the cult of manga and anime, Japanese design has long paved the way for the West to follow. Graphic Japan goes beyond this well-known territory to reveal the myriad styles of design produced in Japan today, from packaging to posters, and typography to new media. Contemporary Japanese graphic design is a unique collision of traditional cultural influences and a focused thrust toward modernization on global terms, and the book reflects this marriage of tradition and hypermodernity. Essays on today's innovators are beautifully printed in a simple, elegant manner that is typical of traditional Japanese work, and are combined with bold and colorful visual material which reflects the brash, global commerciality of much new material. This book is an inspirational "must" for designers in the West.
