Stefan Sagmeister
Sagmeister arranges things in an order to produce the image of a word, whether doing so with several possessions or a piece of material.
I really like this example of his work. Sagmeister did a piece named "Having Guts Always Works Out For Me" and this is taken from that. For each word he produced two images, the first of and object and the second of how he had placed that object to recreate the word.
I like it because it isnt simply textology,it also strongly involves the composition of the objects.
Wim Crouwel
I like this example of Crouwel's work. In the below work, Crouwel has shown his 'new alphabet' which basically misses sections of the letters off, i think this shows how people are much lazier now and suggests people can't even be active enough to write letters out properly.
Alan Fletcher
I love this example of Fletchers work. I like how he does exactly what the word means/includes. I like how he has collaged the word "collage" showing its meaning, but also used older paper, which works well with collaging often includes reusing old things (pictures, objects, text etc) to create new images.
Kris Sowersby
I like this, its simple and clear, making it very effective.
Pep Carrio
I prefer the left side of this, rather than the right. I like how the face of the subject is covered, leaving a mystery about them. The heart subjects a little about her character but doesn't reveal a lot about personality. I like how the image behind is black and white, when the over-work on the face is done in block red, making it stand out and automatically draw the viewers eyes to the face.
Noma Bar
I like how Bar uses double standard images, where the image can be one of two things, depending on how your eyes view it. This seems to be a frequent technique within Bars work and works well with the block, bold colours that are used. I think the below because of the relationship between the two images, smoking and the amount of money that the World spend/'waste' on nicotine.
