Wechselspiele: Neuer Umgang mit alten Ornamenten / Willberg, Brigitte., 1994

 Item
Identifier: CC-28198-29364
Scope and Contents

Brigitte Willberg composed this book using ornamental typographic devices. As she states in the preface, created "expansive new compositions in which the individual element is an integral component. The forms are fluid, streaming with an energy that is at times, explosive." Five different ornaments were used for these compositions. Each ornamental surface was based on just one figure which was typeset by hand after extensive calculations and sketches. Although the images were typeset, their appearance is reminiscent of typewriter art, particularly in the work of Henri Chopin. -- Source of annotation: Marvin or Ruth Sackner.
