Author Description

<i>CIPÁR&LOGO.ETC.</i> focuses on the life-long work of Miroslav Cipár in the field of graphic design. The book concentrates on a complex presentation of signs, symbols, and logographers. The aim of the book is to present Miroslav Cipár as an established graphic designer--the author of iconic logographers and symbols in Slovak culture (f.e. logographers of Slovak National Gallery, Gallery of City Bratislava, Bratislava Music Festival, The Biennale of Illustrations Bratislava--all very important and well-known institutions in Slovakia). This is all done not only through his purely design work but also the textual part focused on theoretical analysis and reflection. This publication is the first ever to be primarily oriented on his overall design production, besides his paintings, graphic art, and drawings. Cipár became a huge inspiration for present, and also future generations of artists active in visual communication field in Slovakia and abroad.
