Alex Trochut

Barcelona’s Alex Trochut is not your typical graphic designer. His work evokes a certain sense. The striking geometry of his lines, the beautiful shapes and contours of his illustrated typography. A graduate of ELISAVA Escola Superior de Disseny in Barcelona, Trochut honed his expressive graphic design working at studios like Toormix and Vasava before striking out on his own as an independent. Today, Trochut’s services attract the attention of clients like Nike, Universal Records, and British Airways. His work has also graced the covers of magazines like Beautiful/Decay, and been featured at conferences like Australia’s Semi-Permanent. I recently caught up with Mr. Trochut. Here’s how our conversation played out.

60 Concert Posters From Ten Amazing Artists

from Smashing Magazine by Vitaly Friedman & Sven Lennartz
By Robert Bowen

When scouring the design field, searching for stand-out artistic expression and fluid composition, one area that should always catch the eye, is poster design. Moreover, concert poster design, which has produced some truly revolutionary artists and works for generations now, should be paid particular attention to. Fluidity of design is especially key in poster layouts, as there is a finite space, and numerous points to capture and pass along within these confines.

The designer must encapsulate not only the band’s attitude and tone with the work, but also impart the feel of the album or tour that the poster is announcing. And speaking of announcements, the posters must seamlessly incorporate the typography that tells the reader the names, dates, and places of import. All the while maintaining the impact of the piece, and not overworking or overfilling the area and detracting from it’s overall arrangement.

So many shining examples of this exist in the art community, and in this episode of Monday Inspiration we present 60 inspiring concert poster designs from 10 amazing artists. The links at the bottom will take you to sites dedicated to showcasing other wonderful works from the concert poster genre.

Pessoal, o que se pretende é que este seja um espaço de partilha mas também de discussão e troca de ideias, o que significa que era simpático fazermos comentários ao que aqui vamos colocando. É que se não o fizermos, ficamos com um blog estéril e por isso mesmo sem interesse.
Vamos lá a isto.
