| Opplysninger | On the Edges of Graphic Design from A—Z—∞ celebrates the past, present, and future of alternative Graphic Design through the hands and minds of a multidisciplinary and international design community, their practices, and community-building experiences at A—Z Presents, the Berlin space for experimental Graphic Design. Assuming the form of an ‘Index for alternative Graphic Design’, the book offers a comprehensive view of the wide range of activities performed by a multitude of graphic designers and visual artists with diverse backgrounds, ages, and career standings over the past six years. It also looks ahead by exploring how a group of international designers envision the future of the discipline of Graphic Design. The first part, A—Z, features all the projects, workshops, exhibitions, talks, and a wide range of activities and events initiated by A—Z, in alphabetical, cross-referenced entries. It includes contributions from designers such as Na Kim, Niklaus Troxler, and The Rodina, to name just a few, as well as a myriad of related topics, from “Asemic Writing” and “Rebellion Riso Posters Collab” to “Yellow Bench”, and over 100 other entries. The second part, titled —∞, features 36 international designers, including April Greiman, Richard Niessen, and Loraine Furter, who were invited to envision the future of Graphic Design and how it could be enacted in a transdisciplinary space like A—Z. These contributions range from reflections on the body in digital space and AI, to interspecies relationships, and language viewed through different scripts, among many others. The richly illustrated publication is designed and conceptualized by A—Z founder and curator Anja Lutz, who sees the book as a “meta-level for the continuous exploration of alternative thinking and practicing graphic design.” The book features an introduction by designer Jason Grant and a conversation between publisher Freek Lomme and Anja Lutz. The publication is scheduled to be released this summer by Set Margins. -- Editor's website
