Presenting an exhaustive overview of the life and work of the great nephew of the famed graphic artist, M.C. Escher, ‘Living for Posters’ exposes a skilful artistic repertoire only sporadically seen outside the borders of the Netherlands. Notable especially for his clear use of colour and balanced expression, Gielijn Escher’s work displays careful craftsmanship and thoughtful design. Those who visited Amsterdam regularly in the 1970s, ‘80s and ‘90s would have immediately recognized his work, and also appreciated how he distinguished himself from the common advertiser. The book shows Escher’s strengths as both an adept producer and avid collector of posters.
