QUOTE OF THE WEEK:

Quote by Inge Darwish. Typographic Layout Nadine Brown  


Inge gave a lecture Tuesday 27th September 2011.  The two questions asked  where, "What is art?  What is design?"  For the first time I actually had to think twice on these questions.  

Inge stated a list of books, one in particular which stood out to me was Alan Fletchers, Art Of Looking Sideway.  I have had this book for a good several years.   It is a fantastic book, as it explores the ideas of how the eyes, brain and hands create work through imagination.  It looks into visual awareness, aesthetics and deign. 





Art Of Looking Sideways, Alan Fletcher, 2006.

The other books mentioned below I will look into further at later point to add to my collection.


1. No Logo - Naomi Klein 
2. Mark Ryden - Semiotics
