Tag hinzufügen | Zusammenfassung: | "Line Up", the project that della Olga created for Three Star Books, stresses the fact that analog and digital worlds are complementary. The subject of the artist’s obsession for "Line Up" is Alphabet: a typeface developed by Timothy Epps and the experimental psychologist Christopher Evans in England in the late 60's. "Alphabet" was the result of a challenge for them to find a system that would enable early computers to recognise fonts. Working within a five×five grid, "Alphabet" was designed entirely from vertical and horizontal lines. For Raffaella della Olga, who is instinctively attracted by geometric and/or programmatic art, Epps and Evans’s font was the perfect object of study and inspiration. Her interpretation led her - and the production team at TSB - to develop an original and free interpretation of "Alphabet" using basic silk screen printing and paper embossing to create stunning geometric trompe-l’oeils. Page after page the twenty six letters of "Alphabet" create compositions toying with the history of both optical and abstract painting. Indirectly quoting the works of Sol Lewitt, Josef Albers and OP ART artist Bridget Riley. https://threestarbooks.com/RAFFAELLA-DELLA-OLGA-LINE-UP |
