ARNOLDI, PER - 100 PLAKATER ETC. (100 Posters etc.).

Author: Finsen, Hanne
Year: 1995
Country or State of Origin: Denmark

Arnoldi has created several hundred posters and is today regarded as one of the great masters in this field. The poster has its own rules. It must convey to the viewer a message as directly and convincingly as possible, quite often forced to assert itself in large public spaces, in streets, squares and railway stations. Thus, everything in the picture must be clearly defined and easy to comprehend. Accordingly, Arnoldi’s poster work reveals an endeavor for maximum concentration of form and color which gradually leads to the sublimely obvious and simple. Arnoldi has maintained a clear, human and unpretentious form which makes him universally recognizable.

Haapaniemi, Klaus: MONSTERS.

Author: Haapaniemi, Klaus with stories by Rosa Liksom
Year: 2004
Country or State of Origin: London

This new monograph features illustration and design that draws on a surprising variety of influences that range from Finnish tribal culture to Scandinavian design and the works of French artist Toulouse Lautrec. Developing ideas put forward in his first book, Quattro Stagioni, he uses six distinct forms to explore a world that is baroque, hallucinogenic and startlingly inventive. This richly illustrated book also features a story by Finnish novelist Rosa Liksom which is based on a series of Haapaniemi’s surreal images - images that have seemingly been snatched from children’s stories and subjected to his own unique method of digital distortion. Once described as the most influential designer to have emerged from Scandinavia since the Second World War, the Finnish national artist works primarily in the fields of fashion and illustration.

MELLAN HIMMEL OCH HELVETE (Between Heaven and Hell).

Author: Cederlf, Ulf, ed
Year: 1996
Country or State of Origin: Sweden

Discover the eerie similarities between medieval drawings and Slayer t-shirts in this exploration of depictions of topics such as Heaven, Hell, Death, and Martyrdom throughout the history of art. From the 1960s through the 1980s, there has been an increasing obsession with these topics within youth culture. An exhibition of impressive scope, this book includes illustrations by Albrecht Dürer, Edvard Munch, Francisco Goya and Alphonse Mucha compared with an array of pop culture t-shirt and record illustrations from bands such as Sepultura, Alice Cooper, Led Zeppelin, and the Grateful Dead. This exhibition embarks on an in-depth examination of the recurrence of these themes, as evidenced by its chapter titles such as: Holiness and Martyrdom, Time and Death, Witches and Satan, the Psychedelic Hangover, and the Eruption of the Spiritual in the 1960s, to name a few.
