Ubersee 2 Exploring Visual Culture

The second instalment of dgv's own, strictly ad-free periodical once again provides a proving ground for fringe projects, interesting snippets, indulgent spreads and radical exercises by the finest designers. With a very loose focus on the intersection, interplay and exchange between graphic design and architecture, a bulk of the work is concerned with the properties of space. An inspired run (from urban actionism to graffiti and typography), these unusual exercises delight in tweaking the norms (from surface into space) of 2D, 3D and entirely new dimensions. True to the maxim "anything is possible as long as it's great", Ubersee 2 remains a haven for the good, great and downright strange with decidedly sinister takes on nametagging, photography by Andrea Giacobbe and a selection of fantastic oil paintings by Lutz Pramann.Klanten, Robert is the author of 'Ubersee 2 Exploring Visual Culture', published 0009 under ISBN 9783931126995 and ISBN 3931126994.
