Poster for my first design exhibition at the Baden-Württemberg Office for the Promotion of Trade and Industry, Stuttgart, 1957
"Visual – Advertisements and Companies' Marks"
Poster for the first exhibition dealing with our visual ambience, developed by designers belonging to Group 56 in the Association of German Graphic Designers. The new area of activity called "communications design" was presented for the first time.
A brochure called "Visuell Tractat" ("Visual Tract"), brought out in collaboration with Fritz Seitz, is one of the first theoretical descriptions ever to have been published on the subject under post-war conditions.









In a series of exhibitions called "Documentation of Graphics" the works of graphics designers were presented in individual shows for the first time after the war in Germany.
