O design de Bea Feitler
註釋Carioca designer Bea Feitler had a meteoric career: at age 25 she became codirector of the art of Harper's Bazaar, one of the most prestigious fashion magazines in the United States, with more than a decade in the company of photographers like Richard Avedon. This was the springboard for Bea to become one of the most influential art directors of the American scene, producing books, magazines, posters, album covers and books to personages as influential as the Beatles, the Rolling Stone magazine, Helmut Newton, The Sweet Barbarians, Diaghilev and the Russian Ballets and to Jackson Pollock. It is no exaggeration to say that Bea was, in many instances, the eye of pop Hurricane that rocked the country since the mid-1960s until the late 1970s. This exciting story, full of flights of luck, success and drama, is told in the book "The design of Bea Feitler". Organized and with a biography by historian Bruno Feitler and a graphical analysis by Andre Stolarski, the volume investigates the trajectory of the noted designer over 260 pages and 480 illustrations, spanning from the beginning of her career in magazine redesign of Vanity Fair, relaunched after her death. Apart from Bazaar, Bea, signed in partnership with photographer Jacques-Henri Lartigue, and was was involved with other magazines, including Rolling Stone, Vanity Fair and Ms., a magazine dedicated to the feminist movement during the decade of the 1970's, the album cover Black and Blue from the Rolling Stones and memorable advertising campaign for Calvin Klein. Feitler used typography to create visual narratives and had a sharp eye when using photography, both in production as in pictures. Bea died at the age of 44, leaving an impressive body of work.
