'The Best of Wim T. Schippers'
Book Design;
Publisher: Centraal Museum Wim T Schippers is an artist who borders consistently on the irritating, while simutanuously - or perhaps as a result - expressing an underprecedent freedom. In this book a minor graphic design problem, intregration of Dutch and English text, was resolved with a typical Schippers panache. The two languages are super imposed in two colors, red and green, with coloured transparent sheets enclosed to make the respective texts legible. All the illustrations are in red and green duo-tone. A modest but characteristic selection of his work is presented on loose full-colour plates in a bag at the front of the book - in typical fluxus style.
1997
