Graphic Design & Illustration/2013/35 min/Reel № 13.001
ByChristoph Niemann
Christoph Niemann on the tension between his inner artist and his inner editor
The Best of the World's Creativity/Recorded 2013
A close reading, kept within reach.
Christoph Niemann takes graphic design & illustration as a lens on the larger question the festival keeps returning to: what design owes to the people and places it works among. The talk moves from specific projects toward a broader argument about practice.
Recorded in USA in 2013, the conversation is grounded in Christoph's own working method — the compromises, the constraints, and the moments where the work taught them something they didn't expect.
The closing turn is characteristic of the archive: less a conclusion than a provocation, handed to the audience to carry into their own disciplines.
Renowned illustrator and creator of the popular Petting Zoo app, Christoph Niemann talks about his work and process at Design Indaba Conference 2013.
