Book-Review / Bucher-Chronik Global in scope, Graphis is a compelling record of the most significant and influential communication work being produced today. In visually driven articles, Graphis beautifully presents the best work produced internationally in Graphic Design, Advertising, Branding & Identity, Illustration, Publishing, Packaging Design, Typography and Photography. with a focus on modern European designers. Graphis’s most influential and groundbreaking years were from the 1940s to the mid-1960s. These periodicals are much harder to find than the well known Graphis Annuals, which are essentially pictorial “best of” collections and lack the depth and text of the originals. These publications are also more valuable as they are the original documents. Many of the articles are written by important artists, critics and scholars.
