Item Number: 135838 Title: RICHARD HOLLIS designs for the Whitechapel: graphic work for the Whitechapel Art Gallery, 1969–73 and 1978–85 Author: Wilson, Christopher Price: Not Available ISBN: 9780907259497 Description: London: Hyphen Press, 2015. 24cm., pbk., 288pp. illus. Summary: Richard Hollis designs for the Whitechapel catalogues everything and reproduces most of what was printed for the Whitechapel in these two periods of work. Also included are extended critical captions on the pictures, essays describing Hollis’s work and its context. Wilson’s discussion is illuminated by his extended interviews with Hollis, and with clients, assistants and other colleagues. Looking closely at one period of the designer’s work, he finds the model for Hollis’s whole production. The book is interspersed with chapters on Hollis’s work before, between, and after, his Whitechapel years. So the book also functions as a survey of the work of ‘one of the finest British graphic designers of the past 50 years'.
