A portable art gallery for the digital age

As the price of digital technology has plummeted, its availability has become more democratized. The result has been an explosion of creativity, as more and more people find the powerful new tools of self-expression available to them. No medium has been as completely revolutionized by computer typography, in particular, than that of the small press. This book takes us through some examples of the most innovative work coming from periodicals in the past few years. Sometimes odd, but frequently brilliant, it is always exemplary of the tremendous freedom digital composition has given to the page designer. If you're in the business, chances you'll find stuff here to inspire you. If you just like art, you won't be disappointed, either. [One side note: don't expect any step-by-step instructions on how to reproduce this art. Don't even expect much explanatory text with each plate. It's just a gallery. Even so, you can learn a lot just by looking at the approximately 220 full-color plates on offer here.]

Inspiration!

This book is great inspiration for any graphic designer. If I'm struggling for an idea, this is my muse. The art found in this book is primarily from page design (magazines, books) with very little web design. This is not a negative comment, just don't expect to see much web design. The medium is irrelevant; it's just great design.

This book is a must have...

When I need great ideas and inspiration, I pick up this book! What a wonderful collection of thought provoking artwork. If you are an artist, this book is a must have...it is well worth the price and you'll find yourself pcking it up all the time. I see something new in it I didn't see before every time I open it.
