3.0 out of 5 stars Good but no cigar., 11 Dec 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: David Carson: 2ndsight - Grafik Design After the End of Print (Hardcover)

Although this book was very interesting, it didn't come close to David Carson's other book - 'Photografiks'. If you are to buy only one art book and you are into graphics and photography, I would definately recommend 'Photografiks'. '2nd Site' was an informative introduction to Carson's work but the content wasn't as pleasing to the eye. Nice if you have a large space on your coffee table

3.0 out of 5 stars David Carson: radical chic selling cool corporate culture, 8 Jun 1998

By A Customer

The impact of David Carson's work is enormous--the unfocused and collaged text that is now ubiquitous in graphic design finds its origins in his work. This book, while giving good examples of his ads for such diverse clients as Lucent Technologies, Microsoft, the magazine RAYGUN, to surfer magazines, reflects what is problematic of David Carson's work as a whole: it lacks focus and clarity--but maybe that's his point and, also, the point of this mid-career survey by Mr. Blackwell. Nevertheless, this is a book I recommend for anyone interested in the way Carson's bold graphics redefined the look of advertisements in the 90's. It is visually quite arresting, but equally quite disturbing in that it shows how a creative sensibility is easily coopted by corporations to reinvigorate their own identities.

The man is an advertsing genius, he shows self expression in his work while still selling the goods.
