HET BOEK VAN PTT
by ZWART, PIET
- Used
Color pictorial wrappers. Light spotting to edges of front cover and a little rubbing to spine. Very good copy, bright and attractive. An ingenious book for school children, introducing the Dutch postal and telegraph system. A marvelously inventive and witty book integrating text and image with innovative typography, photomontages of color and black and white images, paper puppets and drawings.
Zwart was a member of the Dutch avant-garde and was involved with its movements and designers at various stages of his life: De Stijl, Bauhaus and the international industrial design movement. He displays here his interest in photography and typography and the use of graphic design for visual communication in mass-produced items. His work for the PTT was the subject of a special exhibition at the Hague Gemeentemuseum in 1968 and an immense retropesctive there in 1973.

This book is in good condition. There is some wear on the front, back, spine, edges and corner of the cover. There is some dog-earring on the right corner pages of the book. The pages are white, crisp and clear of any markings. "This is a history of the visual arts produced in the geographical area that now constitutes the United States. Such a book is difficult to title. A History of United States Art sounds awkward and logically might even be construed to exclude the arts of the colonial period. Thus, with apologies to our northern and southern neighbors, I use the title A History of American Art, knowing full well that the terms America and the United States are not synonymous...." - Preface from A History of American Art
