Illustrated stiff wrappers. Illustrated. New copy in publishers shrink wrap. 240 pp. 27 x 21,5 cm. Jan van Toorn is one of the most significant and influential Dutch graphic designers to have emerged since the early 1960s. While graphic design often does little more than give unthinking visual form to the status quo, Van Toorn focused on meaning rather than smooth stylistic expression and developed critical alternatives to the usual design world conventions.
