Hundreds of calligraphic artwork and lettering for packaging, record covers, labels, murals and logos, as well as live performances with musicians and athletes. The book traces Barcelona’s journey through images and stories collected in the experience of the lettering world; a true school of life, starting from aesthetics to the spiritual path, what navigated calligraphers know as ‘the way of writing.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a more introspective book than its predecessor, reflecting at bottom the practice no longer of a calligrapher but of an artist using calligraphy. In addition to an authoritative and knowledgeable opinion on the state of the art of this discipline, corroborated by contributions from practitioners and colleagues of Barcellona, the book gives a new and fulfilling visual experience. Its 344 pages bring together more than 500 images in an elegant volume, aimed at calligraphers and calligraphy enthusiasts, designers, communication professionals, teachers and students.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBook design by Bunker. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/article\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePublished by \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eLazy Dog Press\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eHardcover with colored edges\u003cbr\u003eFirst Edition\u003cbr\u003e344 pages\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003e220 x 300 mm\u003cbr\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eISBN \u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e9788898030255\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400;\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Lazy Dog Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":56974435811659,"sku":null,"price":49.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/2538\/3478\/files\/DWT.webp?v=1775576042","url":"https:\/\/www.thelibraryproject.ie\/de\/products\/do-the-write-thing-by-luca-barcellona","provider":"The Library Project","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
