Download or read book Sign Painters written by Faythe Levine and published by Princeton Architectural Press. This book was released on 2013-07-02 with total page 187 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There was a time, as recently as the 1980s, when storefronts, murals, banners, barn signs, billboards, and even street signs were all hand-lettered with brush and paint. But, like many skilled trades, the sign industry has been overrun by the techno-fueled promise of quicker and cheaper. The resulting proliferation of computer-designed, die-cut vinyl lettering and inkjet printers has ushered a creeping sameness into our visual landscape. Fortunately, there is a growing trend to seek out traditional sign painters and a renaissance in the trade. In 2010 filmmakers Faythe Levine, coauthor of Handmade Nation, and Sam Macon began documenting these dedicated practitioners, their time-honored methods, and their appreciation for quality and craftsmanship. Sign Painters, the first anecdotal history of the craft, features stories and photographs of more than two dozen sign painters working in cities throughout the United States. With a foreword by legendary artist (and former sign painter) Ed Ruscha, this vibrant book profiles sign painters young and old, from the new vanguard working solo to collaborative shops such as San Francisco s New Bohemia Signs and New York s Colossal Media s Sky High Murals.

Book excerpt: The term Art Deco initially referred to the French-style of decorative arts exhibited in Paris at the 1925 Exposition Internationale des Arts Decoratifs et Industriels Modernes. Then it became a worldwide phenomenon leaving its imprint on everything from buildings to toasters.After WWI, design started to shift from organic, flowing floral illustration to bold, geometric graphic design. Technology started changing the world and the strong vertical lines and aerodynamic forms in Art Deco perfectly matched the skyscrapers, cars, art, furniture and jewelry of the time.In America, the style rapidly evolved and became variously known as Modern, Jazz Modern or Streamline Style and borrowed themes of Aztec or Egyptian art.The Art Deco aesthetic is characterized by geometric rounded shapes combined with stylized letters and strong vertical line details often in symmetrical arrangements.Since A.M. Cassandre created his first Deco type, the Bifur in 1929, Art Deco typography also evolved in different ways. From simple low-waisted monostroke designs to intricate, decorative typestyles, but always reminiscing of the sophistication and glamour of a past era."Art Deco Lettering" is a collection of photographs from all around the globe: Art Deco Letterings and signs from 1920 to the late 1940's.
