Félix Beltrán Visual Intelligence by Optik Books












Félix Beltrán, born 1938 in Havana, Cuba, is one of the most important Latin American graphic designers. He studied at the famous School of Visual Arts in New York in the 1950s and was influenced by mid-century modernism. For more than six decades, he has shaped a conceptual approach to graphic design that emphasises simplicity as a fundamental principle of effective visual communication. His works are situated in the tension between abstract geometry and concrete art.
This book is the first monograph on Beltrán. It not only shows hundreds of his logos, posters, and book covers, but also provides a deep insight into the conceptual and creative mind of the Cuban graphic designer.

Sticker Bombing / Bombardeo Pegatina
Sticker art is everywhere. It’s so prevalent that you may have unconsciously become accustomed to it, not even realising it’s there. [...] It’s a growing, evolving, ever-present form of expression. Stencils, adhesives and installations are now all widely used... You’re gonna get caught. Stickers! it’s logistics, pure and simple. Sticker artists can produce thousands of prints, [...] and many choose to use adhesives that will wear off over time.
Las pegatinas son una forma de arte tan ubicua que puede que te hayas acostumbrado inconscientemente a ellas, sin darte cuenta de que están ahí. Son una forma de expresión siempre fresca. Las plantillas, adhesivos e instalaciones ahora son muy utilizados. ¡Te enganchan! ¡Pegatinas! pura y simple logística. Los artistas pueden producir miles de impresiones, [...] y, por ello, muchos elegimos utilizar formatos adhesivos que se desgastan y deterioran facilmente con el tiempo. —by Justin Egl
