Jean Widmer: A Devotion to Modernism

If you were interested in the work of Jean Widmer, you could read this book and, um, that’s it. Thank goodness for the Lubalin Center and Cooper Union for publishing this exceptional showing of his work with an interview that introduces his approaches and philosophies. Not only do we see a lot of good work in here, but we see hints of other designers, too. Either he was looking at them or they were looking at him. We’d guess the latter. You’ll have to read the book to find out which is the right answer.
