TIME(LESS) SIGNS
Contemporary Art in Reference to Otto Neurath
Pictogrammes, icons, apps ... analogue and digital pictorial symbols are increasingly defining the nature of communication; visual guidance systems fundamentally shape the public space. These systems are now part of our daily (media) life and come from ISOTYPE (International System of Typographic Picture Education), Otto Neurath’s visualisation system.
On the occasion of the 130th birthday of Neurath, TIME(LESS) SIGNS invites readers into the cosmos of the diverse visual symbols of contemporary visual arts to investigate and define the relevance of his concepts for current art production as well as for global communication channels.
