"Texture, line, simplicity--these were the things he liked--the classic truth." Katharine Hepburn

As time goes past, and the history of photography becomes deeper, photographers such as George Hoyningen-Huene (b.1900-d.1968) remind us how rich that legacy grows. What is now more than 100 years ago, Huene (hoo-Nay), while standing on the shoulders of previous giants like Edward Steichen (who encouraged a young Huene in Paris in the early 1920's to pursue fashion photography), created timeless work that has helped to shape later generations' understanding of photography, fashion, film and Beauty.

A new book--the first publication in 40 years--on Huene is now out from Thames & Hudson. It is a timely reminder for us to rediscover Huene. In many ways the arc of his life as a Baron and Russian-born aristocrat in St. Petersburg in 1900, as well as being the son of an American mother, mirror the major events of the 20th Century. From WWI, to fleeing the Bolshevik Revolution, to life in bohemian Paris in the 1920's, to Golden Age Hollywood in the 1940's--Huene was a part of it all. His collaborations with the leading artistic and celebrity lights of the day and his relationship with the photographer Horst P. Horst only make his history richer.

This new publication from Thames & Hudson provides a generous overview of his life, including unpublished correspondence, and for me, a whole new appreciation of Huene's travel photography. When we delve back into the history of photography, and see the work of Avedon, Penn, Ritts, DeMarchelier and others, we can appreciate the foundations that Huene laid earlier with elegance, simplicity and a reverence for Beauty: the classic truth. --Lane Nevares

Kimono as Art: The Landscapes of Itchiku Kubota

Dale Carolyn Gluckman, ed.

San Diego Museum of Art / Thames & Hudson 2008

Itchiku Kubota (1917-2003) was an artist and master craftsman whose medium was the kimono. So dedicated to his craft was Kubota that he rediscovered (or reinvented) a lost late 15th- to early 16th-century process of dyeing called tsujigahana, which became the main focus for much of his work. This book, which features fifty-five masterworks by the artist, was published to accompany a traveling exhibition in 2009 and with over 150 color images, details the dazzling colors and incredible handiwork that goes into producing a kimono worthy of installation art. The highlight of the book is the artist’s life’s work, entitled Symphony of Light, an ever-evolving series of a perhaps 80 pieces, that would encompass representations of the four seasons and the universe. However, at the time of his death in 2003, Kubota had completed only 34 kimono for the series.

Typography Tuesday

ERIC VAN BLOKLAND & JUST VAN ROSSUM

This week we present two typefaces by Dutch designers Eric van Blokland (b. 1967) and Just van Rossum (b. 1966), co-founders of the design firm, LettError. Both studied at The Hague Royal Academy (KABK) and were influenced by Dutch typeface designer Gerrit Noordzij. After graduation, they worked in Berlin at Erik Spiekermann's MetaDesign. They founded LettError in 1989.

Both eschew traditional design approaches and rely on computer models and digital expression. As they say, "a font is a software instruction to a printer to perform a task." Together they designed the typeface Beowolf in 1990 and in 2002 van Blokland designed Kosmik, both of which are shown here. For Beowolf, they hacked Adobe's PostScript by adding a new function named "freakto," and the result was Times New Random, later renamed Beowolf, a typeface that changes while it is being printed. No two shapes are identical.

Kosmik is based on the hand-drawn letters van Blokland used in his comic strips. For this typeface, the designer used a new digital invention, the "flipperfont," a tiny program embedded in the font that ensures the printer randomly selects one of three available versions of each character.

These images come from our 2005 book Creative Type: A Sourcebook of Classic and Contemporary Letterforms by Cees W. de Jong, Alston W. Purvis, and Friedrich Friedl, and published by Thames & Hudson.

In Japan the term „monozukuri“, the making of things, is a mindset and method that entails the heartfelt commitment of the executor to give their very best in order to bring an object to perfection. At the same time craft stands synonymous for products and objects that are meant for everyday use and now without ornament or decorative elements. Against the backdrop of this tradition it comes as no surprise that Japanese design still often refers to this tradition. But after the Second World War it mixed with the gradually emerging mass production as practiced in the West.

This decisive shift after 1945 and the overall development of Japanese design well into the present is covered in Naomi Pollock’s compendium „Japanese Design after 1945: A Complete Sourcebook“, published in 2020 by Thames & Hudson: in a total of six chapters devoted to the titans of Japanese design as well as furniture, table ware, lighting and electronics, graphic and packaging design as well as textiles and lifestyle products Pollock provides a very comprehensive overview of the many-faceted Japanese postwar design. Each chapter features portraits of key designers, their important works and daily used design icons. One of these is Kenji Ekuan’s Kikkoman soy sauce bottle, to this day Ekuan’s most significant work and a great example of „monozukuri“ as it took him more than three years and a hundred prototypes to find the perfect shape.

For additional depth each chapter closes with an expert essay focusing on a particular aspect, e.g. the influence of Scandinavian design on Japanese furniture, the development of Japanese car design or an excursion into prewar design which provides additional background insights into its origins in the crafts.

Naomi Pollock’s book is an indispensable companion for anyone interested in Japanese design that also contains countless hints and references for additional research. Highly recommended!

Native American Medicine Wheel

I've been reading a book called "Symbols of the Occult" and I found a fascinating section I wanted to share with you guys.

From what I read; a medicine Wheel can be both a metaphorical representation of sacred cosmological concepts and their embodiment in physical stone monuments used for religious rituals. It is divided into an outer wheel of the four winds and an inner wheel of twelve animal symbols. There is also no one standard form of the medicine, and the one I wrote is considered an example.

The Four Winds/The Four Ruling Animals

East: Eagle

Spring

Associated with new beginnings and approaches to life

South: Buffalo

Summer

Associated with strength, generosity, hard work, and perserverance

West: Bear

Autumn

Associated with independence, self-sufficiency, and careful planning

North: Wolf

Winter

Associated with withdrawal, rest, recuperation, and regeneration

The Twelve Totemic Animals

East

Hawk: Ambition

Beaver: Perserverance

Deer: Empathy

South

Butterfly: Metamorphosis

Salmon: Permanence

Rabbit: Adaptability

West

Raven: Creation

Frog: Fertility

Turtle: Patience

North

Snow Goose: Dreams

Owl: Protection

Snake: Transformation

I also learned a lot more, but I don't want to completely copy from the book. But there is plenty more information on websites and if you guys find this book, check it out, there is more cool stuff to read about.
