5.0 out of 5 stars
Magnificent!, 6 Dec 2000
By Glenn Sakamoto - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Art Is Work: Graphic Design, Interiors, Objects and Illustrations (Hardcover)
From his famous Dylan poster to the iconic "I Love New York" logo, Glaser is probably (with the exception of Saul Bass and Paul Rand) the most recognized graphic designer of the 20th century. Glaser is a true renaissance man- blending illustration, graphic design, signage and interior design. His work today still resonates and vibrates with the same intensity and passion as his days with the Pushpin era.
With his latest book, Milton Glaser once again proves he is the maestro of design and illustration. It is filled with case studies, personal captions and wonderful illustrations and photographs of his work.
Whether you are a student or a professional-buy this book. It will truly inspire you.

4.0 out of 5 stars
Glaser a genius, all designers need this, 20 May 2001
By Lawrence Miller - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Art Is Work: Graphic Design, Interiors, Objects and Illustrations (Hardcover)
I'd have rated it 5 stars save that the printer (I returned my first copy) has a few blotches and splotches here and there; not terrible, just improper). Milton Glaser was called a genius when he was inducted into the NY Art Directors Club Hall of Fame. He is! His conceptions are powerful and creative. His control of many illustration media, of typography from various eras and modes of thought, of decorative matter, his ability to endlessly combine them, are a lesson to experienced designers, illustrators, and art directors, and a stimulus to those who get by on a few cheap tricks. The work is gorgeous, the text is instructional, the overall effect energizing. Buy it.

Great for Students, 24 Mar 2002
By -D "-D" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Art Is Work: Graphic Design, Interiors, Objects and Illustrations (Hardcover)
Milton Glaser has rightly been called a genius. With the exception of some printing issues (the only reason this doesn't get 5 stars), this is a great book. Besides cataloguing much of Glaser's work, the interviews and pieces which show the progression of his work are amazing. I'd highly recommend this to ANYONE involved in teh creative process, but especially to students who may not fully realize how the creative process can play out (and scoffs at the idea of multiple sketches and comps)
Listmania!
