Detailed information

Product detailed description

Identity delves into the evolution of Czech graphic design and typography, tracing its roots from the first Czechoslovak constitution to contemporary digital type.

Author Linda Kudrnovská curates essays, interviews, and archival treasures to illuminate how design shaped—and was shaped by—society, politics, and culture.

The book explores the golden age of Czechoslovak film posters, the tradition of book design admired worldwide, and the innovative work of modern typographers. Identity examines design as both a tool for cultivation and a vehicle for propaganda, revealing the visual language that helped forge a nation’s identity.

Featuring previously unpublished sketches, mock-ups, photographs, and documents from private and public collections, this meticulously designed monograph stands as an essential reference for designers, historians, and anyone interested in the intersections of art, culture, and history.
