Theorie of Style: The liberation of the alphabet

About

Theorie des Style, first published in 1996 on the occasion of the exhibition ‘A Tribute to Style’ near Munich, has just been republished.

This new version, available in English and German, retains the layout of SMAL (Mirko Borsche) and has only minor modifications, including a retrospective written by TECHNO169 (STONE).

CHEECH H and TECHNO169 (STONE), both writers from the first generation, did exchange letters and thoughts on style already for years at that point. Together with SCUM (CEMNOZ) they published the first in-depth analysis of letter forms, stylewriting, and its origins.

Today stylewriting still is a lowing the New York traditions still is the foundation to most writers’ pieces. The analytic content did not lose any of its importance so making it available again some 30 years later seems absolutely legit.

Featuring works from: BOMBER, DAZE, CHEECH H, PHASE2, DELTA, TECHNO169 (STONE), BANDO, DAIM, SHOE, SMAL, ATOME, BATES, SCUM (CEMNOZ), AMOK, PUPPET, SKENA, PAZE, CALEB, DARCO, and NEON.
