Starting out in the commercial design studios of 1950s Detroit, Ed Fella (b. 1938) spent 30 years practising professionally as a graphic designer and illustrator with client-based work for the auto industry, healthcare, and retail sectors. At the same time, he states, he was building 'an alternative practice of experimental design and typography work, done pro bono for arts organisations, while pursuing personal investigations into art and photography'. Now, thanks to the generosity of over 600 Kickstarter backers, there is a book that charts Fella's epic creative journey. Ed Fella: A Life in Images includes a wide selection from his 60 years of work across, effectively, his two careers. A 316pp visual essay forms the centrepiece of the book. Designed by Fella in his own inimitable style, this is a visual history of a remarkable life in images, as told by the man himself. This section contains a wide range of Fella's artworks, sketchbook pages and collages; examples from various illustration and print ad commissions; Polaroids and photographs; alongside many of his instantly-recognisable type-based flyers. The book also features an introduction by Katherine McCoy; essays by Lorraine Wild, Rick Poynor and David Cabianca -- focusing on Fella's long career, his extensive sketchbook work and his flyers, respectively -- and an Afterword by his daughter, Andrea Fella--Publisher
