Twenty-five years after the publications of Milton Glaser: Graphic Design, the longest-selling design book in publishing history, Milton Glaser looks to the future in Art Is Work and considers the central role of tradition in the creation of new work. Glaser, one of the most influential figures in the history of international design, considers not only his own work and the current scene, but argues passionately that art and the creative life are serious business. Lavishly illustrated with more than 500 full-color reproductions, Art Is Work is a comprehensive overview of Glaser"s rich and impressive oeuvre. In this fascinating weave of image and text, Glaser reacquaints us with the bedrock principles that will always be central to design as he looks forward to the new opportunities--and dangers--that technology offers.
