The show was named <i><a href="https://mubi.com/en/us/films/mendo-and-slavica">Mendo and Slavica</a></i>. </span></span><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: arial;">Mendo Mendović was an early celebrity on Yugoslavian TV. He was a puppet
bear that would regularly perform with Slavica Fila (Mendo and Slavica).
He had a peculiar speech, inserting "n" within words (hence his name
Mendo from Medo "(teddy) bear") and he let the good children press his
nose, which would produce a honking sound.<span data-preserver-spaces="true" style="-moz-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; background-image: none; color: #0e101a; font-style: normal;

They worked together from 1961 until 2000. Both designers studied at the School of Design in Basel, where they were steeped in the functionalist grid-based systems of graphic design that came to be internationally known as the Swiss style. Mendell & Oberer produced many exceptional posters for German cultural institutions, using minimal forms and colors to create maximally powerful designs.</span></span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><span style="white-space: pre-wrap;"></span></span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpjCgZp2mVd4-gfRWC8mrmIKNjmtUSMqP56xzb95HM6uZv9JLEsOKWrsOgFp4Vd_eNS9939Bg5MXtKki9dbpewaUb7So2g2ZHc9XOZkZRHboGkb7jaB7q6OzdJRQ6D5rYStbzg1Spj4p6vBYboTtEXrT3QEjRIgBeHjk2tQ3xl7NVIcMkbJpNJikgwpDQ-/s3896/IMG_0125.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3896" data-original-width="2824" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjpjCgZp2mVd4-gfRWC8mrmIKNjmtUSMqP56xzb95HM6uZv9JLEsOKWrsOgFp4Vd_eNS9939Bg5MXtKki9dbpewaUb7So2g2ZHc9XOZkZRHboGkb7jaB7q6OzdJRQ6D5rYStbzg1Spj4p6vBYboTtEXrT3QEjRIgBeHjk2tQ3xl7NVIcMkbJpNJikgwpDQ-/s16000/IMG_0125.JPG" /></a></span></div><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /> </span><p></p>Mirko Ilićhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02038189491370297427noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7293587498245982765.post-81452898388222516262024-01-19T08:50:00.003-05:002024-01-19T08:50:50.894-05:00‘Design Process Auto’ by Pierre Mendell<p><span class="x193iq5w xeuugli x13faqbe x1vvkbs xlh3980 xvmahel x1n0sxbx x1lliihq x1s928wv xhkezso x1gmr53x x1cpjm7i x1fgarty x1943h6x xudqn12 x3x7a5m x6prxxf xvq8zen xo1l8bm xzsf02u" dir="auto"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: arial;">I received a gift from my friend, a poster by German designer <a href="https://www.designboom.com/design/pierre-mendell-1929-2008/">Pierre Mendell</a> for the exibit ‘Design Process Auto’ by <span><span class="xt0psk2"><span><a href="https://dnstdm.de/en/">Die Neue Sammlung</a></span></span></span> in Munich.<br /><br />'The
exhibition provided an insight into the design process of automobiles,
illustrating how designs and concepts are progressively refined until
they reach a final solution. This process of simplification is reflected
within Mendell’s poster. Through his design he wanted to convey the
idea of progression. Using photography and line conversion techniques,
Mendell demonstrated the exhibits subject matter through reductive form
and bold use of colour — a familiar style amongst many of his work. The
completed design demonstrates clearly and concisely that all car design
starts from a single basic principle: four wheels.<br /><br />Mendell’s
familiar style reduces subject matter to its bare attributes, by
utilising strong geometric form, striking colour, unexpected
juxtapositions and missing elements, he allowed viewers to discover the
exhibition on their own without taking the freshness out of the subject.<br /><br />By
supplying the viewers with little more than the first stage of car
design, Mendell is encouraging the viewer to participate and engage with
the piece, inviting them to fill in the details with their own
imagination. Mendell’s ability to include and acknowledge the viewer
demonstrates how accomplished and skilled he really is.<br /><br />Through
his reductive style, Mendell went on to define a whole generation of
printed promotional material for cultural institutions all across
Germany, earning him a reputation as one the worlds leading graphic
designers.<br /><br />His posters characterised the appearance of many
public cultural institutions and for almost 30 years, Mendell continued
to play a key role in the visual identity of Die Neue Sammlung.' –Mac

Despite being a movie poster, this is quite rare. Even before the poster was released, the production company decided to change it to a different poster that featured big movie stars such as Orson Welles.

It is very important to know that this art is a gift from him; it is not stolen. </span></span></p><div class="" style="-moz-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; font-family: ArialMT; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: arial;">'For those of you who aren’t familiar with <a class="" href="https://www.ralphsteadman.com/">Ralph Steadman</a>’s art, he is an English artist known for his long artistic partnership with Hunter S. Thompson, drawing pictures for several of his articles and books. He accompanied Thompson to the Kentucky Derby for an article for the magazine Scanlan's, to the Honolulu Marathon for the magazine Running, and illustrated both Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas and Fear and Loathing on the Campaign Trail '72. Steadman has expressed regret at selling the original illustrations for Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas at the advice of his agent to Rolling Stone founder Jann Wenner for the sum of $75, a fraction of their later value. As a result of that transaction Steadman has largely refused to sell any of his original artwork and has been quoted as saying "If anyone owns a Steadman original, it's stolen." While there are original pieces held outside of his archive, they are exceedingly rare. The artist has kept possession of the vast bulk of his original artwork.'<br class="" /><br class="" />For many years, I have admired his energy, sarcasm, and wit that shows through his art. A few years ago, we became email-pals, and I asked him to create a <a href="https://tolerance-project.org/">Tolerance Poster</a> for me, which he did. And now, this. </span></span></div><div class="" style="-moz-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; font-family: ArialMT; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: arial;"> </span></span></div><div class="" style="-moz-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; font-family: ArialMT; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: arial;">I am quite excited and I hope that this art does not give me high blood pressure.</span></span></div><div class="" style="-moz-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; font-family: ArialMT; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: arial;"> </span></span></div><div class="" style="-moz-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; font-family: ArialMT; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwLBRj2QnvO_YhlBXwOFi_VwE3S0k2PNtmiqRemc2fvDUTfHqbDVBZ4g3FpVEhEDTuirP5ZlgW0QyJoY4Wje8qx9FfNmc3dRdcqZADwTWke24ZRIzB1dyLFwCm9qxYhqU3oGHQHuhrQxgNaLpxcmq8ojs0_enez0V7KETCV03QmVUDnyoOYcR0L6bGsf5r/s2863/IMG_9458.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2863" data-original-width="2281" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjwLBRj2QnvO_YhlBXwOFi_VwE3S0k2PNtmiqRemc2fvDUTfHqbDVBZ4g3FpVEhEDTuirP5ZlgW0QyJoY4Wje8qx9FfNmc3dRdcqZADwTWke24ZRIzB1dyLFwCm9qxYhqU3oGHQHuhrQxgNaLpxcmq8ojs0_enez0V7KETCV03QmVUDnyoOYcR0L6bGsf5r/s16000/IMG_9458.JPG" /></a><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcv5z_y8gyZQg5j4FokanxY8angpZOTVoDZkbzJgcPiapNqqU7ybUFveo44kVYWB9nD1K53nePU8-dn-6hiopr-A21XezzIuZroLOwc9f5Ibvd6WC55FiTQpNA4GKiixz_x00lc1CaMHiJqLjXpKlCZaX2INBIGjt89OAef77t1iJmaj2lvNTSWmEVr6On/s3498/IMG_9459.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2667" data-original-width="3498" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjcv5z_y8gyZQg5j4FokanxY8angpZOTVoDZkbzJgcPiapNqqU7ybUFveo44kVYWB9nD1K53nePU8-dn-6hiopr-A21XezzIuZroLOwc9f5Ibvd6WC55FiTQpNA4GKiixz_x00lc1CaMHiJqLjXpKlCZaX2INBIGjt89OAef77t1iJmaj2lvNTSWmEVr6On/s16000/IMG_9459.JPG" /></a></div><br /></div><br /> </span></span></div><div class="" style="-webkit-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; font-family: ArialMT; font-size: 15px; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; orphans: auto; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; widows: auto; word-spacing: 0px;"><br class="Apple-interchange-newline" /><br /></div>Mirko Ilićhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02038189491370297427noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7293587498245982765.post-83367716519355755562023-11-24T12:45:00.002-05:002023-11-24T12:45:32.302-05:00"Punisher War Zone" by Joe Kubert<p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><span style="-moz-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; display: inline !important; float: none; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">I recently acquired this page from the comic <i>Punisher War Zone</i> by Joe Kubert from 1994. I love Joe's work, especially beacuse, at first glance, his drawings look loose, sometimes almost unfinished (check out the detail of the shoe) because of how much he pays attention to details. I almost exclusively bought this particular page because of one detail that one does not notice immediately, especially in this black-and-white copy of the comic. It may look different in the color version, which I have never seen. The detail that fascinates me is how the door opened by the policemen pushed the debris in its way. </span></span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><span style="-moz-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; display: inline !important; float: none; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;">One needs to be brilliant and logical to think of that.</span></span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: arial;"><span style="-moz-text-size-adjust: auto; -webkit-text-stroke-width: 0px; caret-color: rgb(0, 0, 0); color: black; display: inline !important; float: none; font-style: normal; font-variant-caps: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"></span></span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUgFQ5bpSxufICneRIeyto80FdI6cCtAUQw3qrjLwdqvPstAyhGr1530s_CO-cWtrKvKqk4rxq-Ik0srPfzcwb4YyTwc2g6vkDSm1aYSaVCV6fOPWBx85w6YqgE6Nt7oHOQ9MdPV8wODf2uydInkg1gSIcUUUzKG9yBpVolyBKU-w1-Ub6eU6BNY9a6Jhv/s3762/IMG_9411.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3762" data-original-width="2765" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjUgFQ5bpSxufICneRIeyto80FdI6cCtAUQw3qrjLwdqvPstAyhGr1530s_CO-cWtrKvKqk4rxq-Ik0srPfzcwb4YyTwc2g6vkDSm1aYSaVCV6fOPWBx85w6YqgE6Nt7oHOQ9MdPV8wODf2uydInkg1gSIcUUUzKG9yBpVolyBKU-w1-Ub6eU6BNY9a6Jhv/s16000/IMG_9411.JPG" /></a><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGniLLBiH1JotyR3KCNTJjOQJJbDa9LRLOQC-1duvstVenwIMfuNS6w8g_73v-Ho1ih9Uv7lLXx5iTArtx_vk9xhPebxca86oiVYSPLEX5Y4p0hI3CLZN18pMkLMKcolvZUoNqXDY3k9llGIzUmpd05KyYzI5fXvuArH7I2McPW_H6tPyIUjjIofVwMqVI/s3838/IMG_9415.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3838" data-original-width="2614" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGniLLBiH1JotyR3KCNTJjOQJJbDa9LRLOQC-1duvstVenwIMfuNS6w8g_73v-Ho1ih9Uv7lLXx5iTArtx_vk9xhPebxca86oiVYSPLEX5Y4p0hI3CLZN18pMkLMKcolvZUoNqXDY3k9llGIzUmpd05KyYzI5fXvuArH7I2McPW_H6tPyIUjjIofVwMqVI/s16000/IMG_9415.JPG" /></a><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgB1Sz-qY9FLv6R8kS0v-p5u0CIUE8vsPMbQBr3iTxMWSLrQgfRPlBgc2I6T2pJXPeA8G0gZ6wfJTDDzUmCPIQjlbTgTwN1yhpWVj7vB-VeXIFgtavpGy4ht0YlHpDa7UrZ0FVzn_mFxNU_Y9F-VhQFcUK-9YL50Cn_GF4XqvDCxaWaIRDh181zUu_nPPZP/s3083/IMG_9413.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2186" data-original-width="3083" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgB1Sz-qY9FLv6R8kS0v-p5u0CIUE8vsPMbQBr3iTxMWSLrQgfRPlBgc2I6T2pJXPeA8G0gZ6wfJTDDzUmCPIQjlbTgTwN1yhpWVj7vB-VeXIFgtavpGy4ht0YlHpDa7UrZ0FVzn_mFxNU_Y9F-VhQFcUK-9YL50Cn_GF4XqvDCxaWaIRDh181zUu_nPPZP/s16000/IMG_9413.JPG" /></a><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtE9Dz_4t-HzQNQQXwaSeSXLpIHd-IryLXiMj5qD0JuxCko0QCAfZvk0B5yhwRpVscGEpeP3CvlP89-hkp6FhzmoMDhHWzQxN7i68r0T-CPE8oohFXdtjT1ajYeE5671BzCmN-hn5EJ7hmxmtLbeRnUwGa1wPN9BTBWz4c8dpr5dAfQxG3xZwo-5zvccy_/s3707/IMG_9414.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="clear: left; float: left; margin-bottom: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="2626" data-original-width="3707" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjtE9Dz_4t-HzQNQQXwaSeSXLpIHd-IryLXiMj5qD0JuxCko0QCAfZvk0B5yhwRpVscGEpeP3CvlP89-hkp6FhzmoMDhHWzQxN7i68r0T-CPE8oohFXdtjT1ajYeE5671BzCmN-hn5EJ7hmxmtLbeRnUwGa1wPN9BTBWz4c8dpr5dAfQxG3xZwo-5zvccy_/s16000/IMG_9414.JPG" /></a></div><br /></div><br /></div><br /></span></div><span style="font-size: medium;"><br /> </span><p></p>Mirko Ilićhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02038189491370297427noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7293587498245982765.post-68077184949041415692023-11-14T09:12:00.001-05:002023-11-14T09:12:49.936-05:00Lecture "Symbols of Hate"<div class="xdj266r x11i5rnm xat24cr x1mh8g0r x1vvkbs x126k92a"><div dir="auto" style="text-align: start;"><span style="font-size: medium;"><span style="font-family: arial;">As a part of the celebration of the <a href="https://www.un.org/en/academic-impact/international-day-tolerance-16-november">Day for Tolerance </a>(November
