WOLFGANG WEINGART (1941- ) KUNSTHALLE BASEL / KUNSTKREDIT. 1977. 50 1/4x35 1/2 inches, 127 1/2x90 1/4 cm. Wassermann AG, Basel. Condition B+: creases in margins and image; abrasions at edges. Paper. Weingart was primarily a self-taught designer and pioneer within the Modernist movement. He moved to Basel in 1968 and began teaching at the Kunstgewerbeschule, challenging the rational order and dogmatic rules of the international style. Inspired by the montage, collage technique and using new technologies, Weingart's posters surpass the concept of contemporary design and achieve a near alternative status. MoMA 208.2006, V&A E.473-2009.
