Summary:
"The graphic posters presented under the title Typo China remain mysterious and encoded in many respects in Western eyes. And yet it is precisely the Chinese characters, their pictorial quality and expressiveness, that make both reading and merely looking at the posters a fascinating experience - feeling our way into a cultural atmosphere that is still too unfamiliar, and that can enrich our experience well beyond the graphic and visual field."--BOOK JACKET.
