“Aicherâs pictograms for the town of Isny contrast sharply with those he developed for the Munich Olympic games some ten years earlier – while many share the same constructional grid, the speed, grace and pose of the athlete makes way for the slower pace and peace of the rural countryside and country folk. Mountains, hillsides, farms, lakes, skiers, cows, ducks and cyclists are visually rendered in Aicherâs pictographic style. The book is printed black throughout, the images are beautifully paced, either black on white or white reversed out. Written by Katharina Adler, this is a book requiring no words.” DavidMcFarline

while I do like the mtajrioy of your work, this one is really something special. the imagery is powerful enough to work on it’s own without a lot of dramatic lighting or other photoshop trickery. classic style, great use of colours.
All of the same, it is the childhood of boy painting its ideals in the substance planet. He swayed his face.
